The Federation of Skyfall and Typhione is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Kosmos with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, enslaved workforce, and enforced nudity. The hard-working population of 1.969 billion Skyionas 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 Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Albrecht-Valos. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 41.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Skyian economy, worth 201 trillion Kazams a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 101,903 Kazams, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 422,782 per year while the poor average 16,096, a ratio of 26.3 to 1.

Internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, and nothing gets the party jumping like Kosmos specifying how high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Skyfall and Typhione's national animal is the Blood Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Absencinical.

Skyfall and Typhione is ranked 227,881^st in the world and 11^th in Nova Britannia Prima for Nicest Citizens, with 10.55 average smiles per day.
