The Koala of Porfloxia is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, suspicion of poets, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 7.129 billion Defender Koalas enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Administration and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.6%.

The thriving Defender Koala economy, worth 515 trillion Defender Koalas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 72,305 Defender Koalas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 227,557 per year while the poor average 17,575, a ratio of 12.9 to 1.

Nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, economic output is rising as the chronically depressed are persuaded not to burden society, citizens tint their front windows to avoid starring in the 'TV Detector Patrol Unit' documentary, and the sick and dying are locked in their homes with a red "X" painted on the front door. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Porfloxia's national animal is the Defender Koala, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Porfloxia is ranked 258,242nd in the world and 209th in Thaecia for Safest, scoring 14.55 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
