The Republic of The Flition is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 14.807 billion Flitionians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, with Defense, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 69.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Flitionian economy, worth 505 trillion rubles 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 mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 34,138 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Survivors of the Great Internet Flame War often recount horror stories of banhammers and DOS attacks, citizens select which government department gets their income tax rubles each year, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Flition's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Flition is ranked 176,977^th in the world and 3^rd in Jade Was Here for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 65.97 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
