The Most Gilt Republic of Fhaengshia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Consul Ahliero with a fair hand, and renowned for its lack of airports, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 8.651 billion Fhaengshians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Defense, Education, and Environment are also considered important, while Law & Order and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fhaendhaw. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Fhaengshian economy, worth a remarkable 3,276 trillion Szchequinns a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 378,738 Szchequinns, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,667,113 per year while the poor average 18,214, a ratio of 146 to 1.

Private clinics eagerly advertise their trivial specialties, mystics are claiming that a simultaneous rise in scepticism and education budgets is correlation rather than causation, Consul Ahliero is famed for giving great back rubs, and many marriages go virtually unconsummated. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Fhaengshia's national animal is the Wyvern Bat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Shih.

Fhaengshia is ranked 3,088^th in the world and 59^th in the West Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 243.72 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
