The Community of Phigros is a large, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 154 million Pegeons hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.8%.

The strong Pegionic economy, worth 6.70 trillion Datas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 43,530 Datas, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Arbitrary election rules are considered sacrosanct, school children asked "what is two times two?" are likely to form a symposium to discuss how different answers make them feel, census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, and the government seizes private property for the 'good of the people'. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Phigros's national animal is the Geopelia.

Phigros is ranked 90,155^th in the world and 1^st in The Tower for Nicest Citizens, with 15.09 average smiles per day.
