The Republic of Supportive Parents is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory vegetarianism, free-roaming dinosaurs, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 5.244 billion Supportive Parentsians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Industry, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 96.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Supportive Parentsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,340 trillion currencies a year, is highly specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an amazing 255,541 currencies, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,098,226 per year while the poor average 37,999, a ratio of 28.9 to 1.

Saying the word 'eggplant' is now a criminal offense, the Supportive Parents City XV Regiment (aka "The Goat Starers") have yet to win a battle, insanely good theatre productions face government censorship, and wealthy parents-to-be can select their perfect baby. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Supportive Parents's national animal is the animal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Supportive Parents is ranked 3,579th in the world and 8th in Vickenian experiment containment zone for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 12,487.1 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
