The Militarist Republic of The Filippinas is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Marshal Lakarda Altarehos with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 11.578 billion Pinasans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mynila. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 74.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Pinasan economy, worth a remarkable 3,495 trillion Pinasan Casings a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 301,914 Pinasan Casings, with the richest citizens earning 9.5 times as much as the poorest.

A popular Pinasan saying is 'wishing upon a fallen jet engine', elections are won by the candidate who makes the best 'yo mama' jokes, the jackhammer is considered a tool of artistic criticism, and public shaming has become the favoured form of punishment. Crime is totally unknown. The Filippinas's national animal is the Aguila, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Filippinas is ranked 3,210^th in the world and 77^th in the South Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 97 on the Human Development Index.
