The Exalted Republic of Port Flynt is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Earl of Rueben with a fair hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 20.3 billion Flyntons hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Shelbyville. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Port Flyntian economy, worth a remarkable 5,262 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 259,221 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fraternities are rejoicing at government-subsidized partying, visitors often mistake the toiletplex at music festivals for the main stage, the fattest folk in Port Flynt look to be the happiest ones, and politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech. Crime is totally unknown. Port Flynt's national animal is the Llama, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Flexible Deism.

Port Flynt is ranked 123,083^rd in the world and 4,534^th in Lazarus for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,062.45 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
