The Megacorporation of Phelanus is a colossal, economically powerful nation, ruled by the Board of Directors with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 5.992 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals is mainly concerned with Education, although Law & Order and Healthcare are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Phelanis Alpha. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology industry, followed by Uranium Mining and Book Publishing.

All tariffs have been abolished, Phelanus's schoolchildren are manufactured into a segregated bunch of soldiers, religious zealots, and computer technicians, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Phelanus's national animal is the ZooCorp's Ernie the Eagle©, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is as defined by the Phelanus Inc Church, and its currency is the Credit.

Phelanus is ranked 1,074th in Europeia and 120,212th in the world for Most Income Equality, scoring 36 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
