History
Philanchez or The Floydian Socialist States of Philanchez is a nation naught but 979 years old. It was founded by the great Premiers, Sean Phillips and Andrew Sanchez (not to be confused with Leon Sanchez of imperialist fame). It was founded after they began to realize that the country they lived in was not supporting its people. They raised a resistance army of 500,000 and took the capital by storm. Unfortunately this nations name has been lost to history. Since then Philanchez has not been engaged in any wars although it supported Tetris L-Shaped Block in its war against "Tetris R-Shaped Block" and Led "Zeppelin". Since then Philanchez has remained steadfast allies with Tetris L-Shaped Block and considers itself close friends with Spooty, Kaduna, and Palixia.
