The compassionate population of 14.934 billion Fantasma Izquierdoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 74.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Fantasma Izquierdoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,191 trillion invisible coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Trout Farming. Average income is 79,756 invisible coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Primary candidates are replaced if they fail to compliment Leader's hair, a government program is underway to revitalize Fantasma Izquierdo's beaches, the Finance Ministry posts hourly updates on where taxpayer money is spent, and the government has undertaken a massive health education program to combat VODAIS. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fantasma Izquierdo's national animal is the banshee, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fantasma Izquierdo is ranked 307,455^th in the world and 675^th in the Outback for Most Patriotic, with 0.57 flags saluted per person per day.
