The Legend of Lower Phlebacite is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its smutty television, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 12.736 billion Lower Phlebaciteans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sirius EndJinn. The average income tax rate is 3.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Lower Phlebacitean economy, worth a remarkable 4,994 trillion Marvins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 392,184 Marvins, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Punitive tariffs protect local industry, the silencing of dissent speaks volumes about the quality of Lower Phlebacitean democracy, life is somewhat repetitive, and the nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Lower Phlebacite's national animal is the Long Horned Gnubradoodle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Lower Phlebacite is ranked 1,566^th in the world and 16^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 17,083.18 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
