The Theocracy of Falling Petals is a mid-sized, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 68 million Petals are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 10.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Petalian economy, worth 3.22 trillion Seeds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,411 Seeds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, calling dibs is an unalienable right, drugs containing the compound "oleum de serpens" are being sold to cancer patients, and tardiness has increased after carpooling was classified as a criminal offense. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Falling Petals's national animal is the Bee, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Falling Petals is ranked 185,017^th in the world and 1,742^nd in the West Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 47,411.82 Standard Monetary Units.
