The Republic of Flejan is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Stella Wells with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 6.744 billion Flejanians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wimborne. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Flejanian economy, worth 558 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 82,795 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voting is voluntary, government officials are held to the highest standard of morality, owning a really cute pet is grounds for immediate investigation, and Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flejan's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Flejan is ranked 36,736^th in the world and 402^nd in Europe for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 50 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
