The Republic of Felistopia is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Tail of Alder with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.836 billion Felistopians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Public Transport. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thunder City. The average income tax rate is 11.4%.

The Felistopian economy, worth 219 trillion Dabloons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 57,098 Dabloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Bris parties are all the rage, the media seems excessively interested in what Tail of Alder is wearing this season, the Federal Council of Felistopia has been announced as the new Head of State, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime is relatively low. Felistopia's national animal is the Felistopian Blind Cave Bat, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Felistopia is ranked 77,156^th in the world and 1,142^nd in the South Pacific for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 2,449.9 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
