The Faithful Gathering of Filbustan is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its digital currency, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 702 million Filbus Acolytes 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 large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Filbus City. The average income tax rate is 53.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Filbustanian economy, worth 36.1 trillion chairs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,372 chairs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, satellite images show safe electoral constituencies in complete darkness, and police conduct weekly raids looking for contraband cheeseburgers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Filbustan's national animal is the bee, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Filbustan is ranked 20,169th in the world and 861st in The North Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,083.19 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
