The Always Changing Shapes of Feux is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Debussy with an iron fist, and notable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 13.532 billion Comrades are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized 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 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Feuxian economy, worth a remarkable 4,724 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, fairly diversified 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 an amazing 349,105 Francoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A child's only Trickster Night scare is the sight of their parents dancing, the army spends more time producing 'romantic videos' than actually training soldiers, punk-rockers and girl-bands are united in their loss of fashion statements, and the number of eyes rolled per maths lesson is increasing exponentially. 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 Francoism.

Feux is ranked 5,182^nd in the world and 256^th in Lazarus for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 10,060.26 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
