The 🐦 Kingdom of Debussy is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Clancy with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.644 billion Lazarenes are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Debussyian economy, worth 932 trillion Banks a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 140,294 Banks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A primitive society is being eroded as its youth flock to the modern world, the parliament building has installed a revolving door, many whiskies taste suspiciously like automobile radiators, and the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Debussy's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cards.

Debussy is ranked 247,421^st in the world and 6,804^th in Lazarus for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring zero on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
