The Commonwealth of Phanama is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President Bowleaf with a fair hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 7.377 billion Phanamans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Spiritus. The average income tax rate is 88.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Phanaman economy, worth 833 trillion Phanaman Pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 113,025 Phanaman Pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nouveau riche farmers diligently take care of their golden calf herds, the main interest rates change daily based on the latest news story, citizens are strongly encouraged to breathe less so as to limit the carbon footprint, and snap elections are called over every minor impasse. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Phanama's national animal is the Rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Phanama is ranked 7,412^th in the world and 241^st in the South Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,855.65 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
