The Probably Adytus of Debussy is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Clancy with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, free-roaming dinosaurs, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 14.697 billion Lazarenes 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 99.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Debussyian economy, worth a remarkable 2,321 trillion Banks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 157,971 Banks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Soldiers who shoot themselves in the foot are regarded as heroes, search-and-rescue organisations are the biggest employer in the country, blood donations have been banned because of the risk of eternal unrest, and musicians are often arrested for saying "oh my God". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Debussy's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cards.

Debussy is ranked 54,712^th in the world and 1^st in The Red Syndicate for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 13,302.99 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
