The Dominion of King Phil

is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 508 million 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and the Environment. The average income tax rate is 64%, and even higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Gambling industry.

The insurance industry is outlawed, inheritance tax has recently been abolished, soldiers are slaughtered in their thousands due to lack of training, and several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation. Crime is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. King Phil's national animal is the Phrog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
