The Ruinist Algocracy of Flegetonte is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Airbertach Z' ⚭ Atena P' ⚭ Lara S' with an even hand, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 2.428 billion Flegetonteans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Val d'Or. The average income tax rate is 86.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Flegetontean economy, worth 248 trillion Yeux d'Ors a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. Average income is an impressive 102,377 Yeux d'Ors, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A commonwealth of equal nations recognises that Flegetonte is a bit more equal than the others, arbitration is mightier than the sword, nations that kill a Flegetontean can expect a strongly worded letter, and selfie stick use is a required Scout badge. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flegetonte's national animal is the Longisquama, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hiéron du Val d'Or.

Flegetonte is ranked 277,375^th in the world and 5,835^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -11.49 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
