The Commonwealth of Felpolandia

“Felpolandia, o melhor lugar para os Felpolinos”

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

The Commonwealth of Felpolandia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Felps with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 18.957 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 6,102 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 321,927 Quicksilvers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crowds of flag-burning protesters tend to accidentally become crowds of burning protesters, Felps reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, a video of Felps wearing shock-blue face paint and smashing an electric guitar in front of a frenzied crowd is on endless repeat on the nightly news, and Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping. 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 646^th in the world and 31^st in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 28,299.85 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
