The Republic of Flugistani is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Victor Merstein with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.63 billion Flugis hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tropia. The average income tax rate is 80.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Flugi economy, worth 583 trillion Flokkers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 160,756 Flokkers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Online terrorists are automatically assigned adverts for cheap balaclavas, personal injury lawyers are demanding compensation from the government after recent reductions in manufacturer liability, politicians stage photo ops featuring barely functional fighter jets, and a little pushing and pulling is needed for big ships to pass. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flugistani's national animal is the Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Flugistani is ranked 18,599^th in the world and 241^st in 10000 Islands for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 8,340.93 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
