The Kingdom of Phoebicia is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 3.56 billion Phoebicians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, although Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.1%.

The very strong Phoebician economy, worth 198 trillion Didoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is 55,740 Didoes, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 233,429 per year while the poor average 8,666, a ratio of 26.9 to 1.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, euthanasia is illegal, the government's fruit business reeks of rotting produce and corruption, and owning a tractor is widely regarded as an essential prerequisite to most government positions. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Phoebicia's national animal is the razor shell, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Phoebicia is ranked 163,488th in the world and 30th in The TWR and NE Puppet Depot for Smartest Citizens, with 28.79 quips per hour.
