The Free Land of Silent Phantoms is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, devout population of 1.379 billion Silent Phantomsians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 28.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Silent Phantomsian economy, worth 79.9 trillion Gilded Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 57,974 Gilded Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government considers the rising number of McRonald's fast food restaurants to be great progress, sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed, the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, and dinner parties often end in politically charged fist fights. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Silent Phantoms's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Silent Phantoms is ranked 48,518^th in the world and 17^th in Adaven for Safest, scoring 103.42 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
