“From Many, One Voice”

The United States of Philimbesi is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 6.407 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Defence, and Education. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Government officials frequently cut taxes as a distraction from antics with their secretaries, pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are sold freely by the government, the nation's massive battleships are often mistaken for islands, and Philimbesi's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Philimbesi's national animal is the Gecko, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Greenback.

Philimbesi is ranked 14th in the region and 15,526th in the world for Most Dedicated Public Healthcare.
