The Amazing growth of Flowering is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ms Flower with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, public floggings, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 25.092 billion Floweringians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flowertown. The average income tax rate is 70.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Floweringian economy, worth a remarkable 3,071 trillion Roses a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 122,392 Roses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Urban high-volume mailers now receive their mail via chauffeur-driven limousines, back-alley circumcision clinics are popping up all over the nation, the nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned, and country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flowering's national animal is the bee, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Flowerism.

Flowering is ranked 267,033^rd in the world and 9,876^th in Balder for Highest Food Quality, scoring 6.92 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
