The Socialist Federal Republic of SFR Philippines is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Ronnel Lorenzo Carlos with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 12.485 billion Filipinos 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 juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Manila. The average income tax rate is 99.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Philippine economy, worth a remarkable 2,727 trillion ASEAN pesos 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 218,496 ASEAN pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Most of the military's funding goes into researching space-age weaponry, wilderness-dwelling hermits are surprised to find railway stations on their front doorsteps, government workers are more efficient and more unhappy than ever, and nude art is becoming wildly popular. Crime is totally unknown. SFR Philippines's national animal is the Philippine eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

SFR Philippines is ranked 13,945^th in the world and 3^rd in The Cormorant Pact for Most Patriotic, with 55.89 flags saluted per person per day.
