The Interstellar Republic of FlyLands is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Flynn with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and daily referendums. The compassionate, cheerful population of 2.861 billion FlyLandsians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Antwerp. The average income tax rate is 91.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient FlyLandsian economy, worth 377 trillion Côte d'Ors a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 131,860 Côte d'Ors, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, turning the other cheek is accompanied by a polite letter of complaint, the Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters, and school plays were recently banned due to concerns of child endangerment. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. FlyLands's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

FlyLands is ranked 291,570th in the world and 1,174th in The Communist Bloc for Fattest Citizens, with 4.62 Obesity Rate.
