“Felpolandia, o melhor lugar para os Felpolinos”

Overview • Factbook • Dispatches • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Commonwealth of Felpolandia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Felps with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 17.645 billion Felpolandians 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, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Felpolandia City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Felpolandian economy, worth a remarkable 5,643 trillion Quicksilvers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 319,811 Quicksilvers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Money that should have gone to charities is instead spent on monitoring them, the government believes there is no problem that raising taxes won't fix, Felps spends weekends doing the laundry of foreign leaders, and the new Liquor Legitimacy Office is besieged with job applications from people who have experience in "statistical sampling methods". Crime is totally unknown. Felpolandia's national animal is the Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is state atheism.

Felpolandia is ranked 768^th in the world and 35^th in The North Pacific for Smartest Citizens, with 261.12 quips per hour.
