The Federation of Phitoria is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 204 million Phitorians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 37.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Phitorian economy, worth 8.72 trillion catcoins a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,748 catcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Concerned environmentalists wipe away their tears with tissues sourced from Tasmanian old-growth redwoods, the nation's youth voluntarily goes to bed early out of sheer tiredness from their working days, prisons are filled with the cackles and sobs of a deranged inmate population, and five-year-olds who refuse to line up on command get gold stars. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Phitoria's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Phitoria is ranked 83,543^rd in the world and 56^th in Hive for Safest, scoring 88.83 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
