OverviewFactbookPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Republic of Philjia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Arthur Fleet with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 22.585 billion Philjians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Newcastle. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Philjian economy, worth a remarkable 5,025 trillion Philjian Pounds a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 222,503 Philjian Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cheap textbooks have replaced coasters at college ragers, feeling like a winner comes at a price, city workers have declared that rolling markets aren't good for business after all, and engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Philjia's national animal is the Magpie, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Philjia is ranked 716th in the world and 16th in the Rejected Realms for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 101.22 Effective Tax Rate.
