The Militarist Republic of The Filippinas is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Marshal Lakarda Altarehos with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 11.585 billion Pinasans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mynila. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 74.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Pinasan economy, worth a remarkable 3,499 trillion Pinasan Casings a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 302,052 Pinasan Casings, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.

The government has little issue with allowing its citizens to languish in foreign jails, doctors accused of having no heart reply that cardiology isn't their speciality, signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars, and Mynila's iconic yellow taxis are nowhere to be seen. Crime is totally unknown. The Filippinas's national animal is the Aguila, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Filippinas is ranked 3,536^th in the world and 87^th in the South Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 193 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
