The Hellenic Commonwealth of Phelysia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Cyrus of Gimeli with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 6.413 billion Phelysians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atmos. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.5%.
The powerhouse Phelysian economy, worth 550 trillion drachmas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is 85,853 drachmas, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.
A National Academy regulates grammar and usage, coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, calling out of the blue has become taboo, and the government recently donated a surfboard to an impoverished family in a landlocked region. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Phelysia's national animal is the Dolphin, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Pantheonism.
Phelysia is ranked 167,298th in the world and 35th in Tarkin for Most Stationary, with 109.05127048492 days.
