The True Divine Empire of Flandarz is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by The Almighty Lord Flandarz Dragmire with an iron fist, and remarkable for its closed borders, strictly enforced bedtime, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 16.171 billion Flandarians 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 prioritizes Defense, although Education, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dragmire's Fortress. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Flandish economy, worth an astonishing 11,357 trillion Flanmires 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 a breathtaking 702,358 Flanmires, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?", foreign converts are illuminated by both missionaries and helicopter searchlights, the banshee wail foretells skies of death, and mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flandarz's national animal is the human, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Dragmirism.

Flandarz is ranked 11,987th in the world and 4th in Gypsy Lands for Most Stationary, with 2,083.8340135676 days.
