The Democratic Republic of New Phyrreus is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Cactus with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 27.612 billion Phyrreans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Industry, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Newcastle. The average income tax rate is 83.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Phyrrean economy, worth a remarkable 4,226 trillion Sovereigns a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 153,068 Sovereigns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over New Phyrreus, the subway is dead quiet in early afternoons, the national security service are a bunch of crooks, and parking's carefree without parking car fees. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Phyrreus's national animal is the Dingo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

New Phyrreus is ranked 5,507th in the world and 249th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 159 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
