The Flagless Nation of Esfalsa is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, digital currency, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 19.077 billion Esfalsans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ricubai. The average income tax rate is 88.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Esfalsan economy, worth a remarkable 2,112 trillion Fallors a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 110,747 Fallors, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Feuilletons can only be deciphered with a Galliennais dictionary, news headlines suggest that Leader has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, the government is more interested in identifying problems than fixing them, and reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Esfalsa's national animal is the grey goshawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is agnosticism.

Esfalsa is ranked 19,369th in the world and 403rd in the South Pacific for Most Secular, with 59.69 Atheism Rate.
