The Fillydelphian Empire of Red Eye is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Red Eye with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, avant-garde cinema, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 28.501 billion Equestrians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fillydelphia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 73.9%.

The powerhouse Fillydelphian economy, worth a remarkable 2,546 trillion bits 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 Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 89,358 bits, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Women wearing male lounge-wear are quizzed for hours by mental health practitioners, Jack Russells have proven to be terrible spies, colonial citizens are forced to sing the praise of the "Great Fillydelphian Liberator", and Ollie the Oiled Seal welcomes throngs of tourists to the newly opened Oil Oasis Water Park. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Red Eye's national animal is the balefire phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Red Eye is ranked 308,003^rd in the world and 5^th in Yerushalem VI for Nicest Citizens, with 0.77 average smiles per day.
