The Matriarchy of Phlytraps is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its feral children, enforced nudity, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.25 billion Phlytrapsians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded, outspoken government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Policy, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capricorn. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The large but underdeveloped Phlytrapsian economy, worth 110 trillion Clamshells a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Tourism industry. Average income is 49,033 Clamshells, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents, 100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past, and the army consists of only generals and grunts. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Phlytraps's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Artemisism.

Phlytraps is ranked 5,363^rd in the world and 2^nd in Swallowtail for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 95.27 Effective Tax Rate.
