The Democratic States of Flowerio is a large, safe nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 110 million Flowerioans 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 juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 31.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Flowerioan economy, worth 3.95 trillion Floes a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 35,931 Floes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, polling place volunteers are suddenly opening a huge number of offshore bank accounts, military funding has been stripped back, and high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flowerio's national animal is the Macaw, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Flowerio is ranked 300,076^th in the world and 17,483^rd in Lazarus for Largest Black Market, with 19.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
