The Kingdom of Debussy is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Claude with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.396 billion Impressionists 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 Industry, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. The average income tax rate is 76.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Debussyian economy, worth 120 trillion M and Ms a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 86,434 M and Ms, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All new "spies" are fifteen-year-old acne-ridden kids on computers, anti-environmentalist dissidents must beware of government plants in their midst, stray cats threaten the fledgling avian-based internet, and incompetent former soldiers have been re-employed as incompetent cleaners and kitchen staff. Crime is totally unknown. Debussy's national animal is the Moose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Debussy is ranked 5,818^th in the world and 177^th in Lazarus for Most Influential, scoring 8,086 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
