The Republic of Filesystem is a titanic, safe nation, notable for its teetotalling pirates, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 14.42 billion Filesystemians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 54.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Filesystemian economy, worth 587 trillion pesos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Trout Farming. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 40,733 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Internet trolls are considered valiant supporters of the right to free speech, five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes, young people suspect their parents might be a little bit stupid, and artists from across the nation compete to renovate the restrooms of old government buildings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Filesystem's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Filesystem is ranked 221,252^nd in the world and 3^rd in Summer for Longest Average Lifespans, with 67.49 years.
