The United Federation of Philosopy is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by President Philpot with an even hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, humorless population of 22.909 billion Philosopians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cirrus. The average income tax rate is 99.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Philosopian economy, worth a remarkable 6,099 trillion Props a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 266,241 Props, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The law forbids arson, murder, and low-quality cheese, celebrities sit helplessly as they are labeled "pompous womples" by President Philpot, replacement organs are grown in vats, and photographers can be found hiding behind the curtains in President Philpot's bedroom. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Philosopy's national animal is the Kestrel, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Aviation.

Philosopy is ranked 581^st in the world and 14^th in Osiris for Most Developed, scoring 99.01 on the Human Development Index.
