The Kingdom of Cyphlous is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its soft-spoken computers, state-planned economy, and compulsory military service. The compassionate population of 155 million Cyphlousians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 23.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Cyphlousian economy, worth 8.52 trillion Cyphlousian Crowns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 54,986 Cyphlousian Crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cyphlousians are regularly fired for looking at MyFace during their lunch breaks, soldiers are issued comics about superheroes punching unflattering caricatures of their enemies, Brasilistanis face layers of paperwork in a different language just to visit a doctor, and criminals are put to death while cuddling their favourite teddy bear. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cyphlous's national animal is the The Great Cyphlousion Horse, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Cyphlous is ranked 69,581^st in the world and 1,582^nd in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 20.25 flags saluted per person per day.
