The Missing Flag of Esfalsa is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 23.173 billion Esfalsans 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 government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ricubai. The average income tax rate is 86.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Esfalsan economy, worth a remarkable 2,615 trillion Fallors a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 112,882 Fallors, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Feuilletons can only be deciphered with a Galliennais dictionary, news headlines suggest that Leader has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, the government is more interested in identifying problems than fixing them, and reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Esfalsa's national animal is the grey goshawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is agnosticism.

Esfalsa is ranked 10,076^th in the world and 321^st in the South Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 31.37 average smiles per day.
