The High Athelingric of Flangiski is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Asher Wiley with an iron fist, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 9.01 billion Flangiskians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Osearwynn. The average income tax rate is 89.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Flangiskian economy, worth a remarkable 1,402 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 155,639 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

The government has strong opinions about what goes into your bodily orifices, throwing garbage out of your house's front window makes it legally someone else's problem, children are told they have to do well in school if they want to live, and the arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flangiski's national animal is the snow leopard, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Adoptionism.

Flangiski is ranked 36,132^nd in the world and 481^st in Snep for Most Developed, scoring 80.92 on the Human Development Index.
