The Theocratic State of Phyakaran is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, zero percent divorce rate, and national health service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.4 billion Phyakaranis have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Taekiing. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Phyakarani economy, worth 356 trillion Nyars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 148,495 Nyars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Soldiers with colourful mohawks make themselves perfect targets for snipers, truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news, the nation is famous for having one of the world's largest Kaalrera Horse hunting institutions, and old folks yearn for the days when young people saw bloodthirsty death matches with their own eyes instead of through a screen. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Phyakaran's national animal is the Kaalrera Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Mahayana Buddhism.

Phyakaran is ranked 170,263^rd in the world and 3,081^st in the South Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 50 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
