The Foínix Aftokratoría of Megistos is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Mysterious Idol with a fair hand, and renowned for its teetotalling pirates, anti-smoking policies, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 3.884 billion Mᴇgistians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of La Paix. The average income tax rate is 78.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mᴇgistia economy, worth 914 trillion Frᴇies a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 235,538 Frᴇies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

With increasingly clear skies nobody seems to mind the electricity bill going through the roof, unemployed school bus drivers photobomb virtual classroom meetings, polite commuters on the La Paix Metro always let hurried workers off the train first, and orange is the new black for judicial robes. Crime is totally unknown. Megistos's national animal is the Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Phoenixi Orthodox.

Megistos is ranked 264,668^th in the world and 4,775^th in the South Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 1.02 flags saluted per person per day.
