The Socialist Republic of Flavionia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Flavionian People's Council with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 4.128 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Equality, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Falmensia. The average income tax rate is 99%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Recent protests against birds flying too low have resulted in bloodshed, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, national parks have long lines of different gender-specific 'Porta-Pottys', and billions of Somons are being blown on orbital weapons development. Crime is totally unknown. Flavionia's national animal is the Flamingo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is State Atheism, and its currency is the Somon.

Flavionia is ranked 1st in Terramagnus and 1,046th in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring 38 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
