Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Free Land of Flibblebonia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Caretaker with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 11.935 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Commerce and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 39%, but much higher for the wealthy. 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.

Invading armies are given hard glares for their cheek, the upper class have been throwing riots after hunting was recently banned, calling out of the blue has become taboo, and the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Flibblebonia City Times is sold out. Crime is totally unknown. Flibblebonia's national animal is the ocelot, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the silentfart.

Flibblebonia is ranked 128th in the South Pacific and 5,807th in the world for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 95 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
