The Femboy Union of Argylia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Felix Argyle The Cutest of bois with an iron fist, and remarkable for its closed borders, flagrant waste-dumping, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 11.172 billion Argylians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order and Education also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Felixgrad. The average income tax rate is 90.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Argylian economy, worth a remarkable 4,374 trillion Felixes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 391,569 Felixes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction, foreign governments regularly accuse the Argylian military of war crimes, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, and government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Argylia's national animal is the Neko, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Maid Miku Plushie.

Argylia is ranked 13,705th in the world and 353rd in The North Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,881.21683074268 days.
