The Empire of Pheltikius is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Phelko with an even hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 20.765 billion Phelnesians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexia. The average income tax rate is 97.1%.

The powerhouse Pheltik economy, worth a remarkable 2,882 trillion Talons a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 138,838 Talons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Children prefer to begin their day with push-ups rather than breakfast, politicians who vacation in East Lebatuck lose their jobs upon their return, satellite images show safe electoral constituencies in complete darkness, and when flight control tells pilots to alter course the usual reply is "No, YOU move!". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pheltikius's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Pheltikius is ranked 8,019th in the world and 374th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 105.17 law-abiding acts per hour.
