The Always Changing Shapes of Feux is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Debussy with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, complete lack of prisons, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 17.42 billion Comrades are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Adytus. The average income tax rate is 99.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Feuxian economy, worth a remarkable 9,173 trillion Francoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 526,629 Francoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government bureaucrats shut down teenage yard-raking businesses for being counter-revolutionary, the seventh son of a seventh son is fated to be a millionaire, lip-readers are often left perplexed by political rallies, and former stunt pilots are unable to pass the licence test to fly a drone. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Feux's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Axiotarism.

Feux is ranked 9,413^th in the world and 508^th in Lazarus for Most Secular, with 95.09 Atheism Rate.
