The Benisian State of Flourish is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Illios Benis with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, avant-garde cinema, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate population of 2.149 billion Flouresians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Isla Villituba. The average income tax rate is 73.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Flouresian economy, worth 255 trillion Lutons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 118,820 Lutons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Livestock mutilations are on the rise, the nation grinds to a halt on the anniversary of every marginally noteworthy event, noises louder than a whisper have been prohibited by law, and there's a hole in the heart of every Flouresian city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flourish's national animal is the Finch, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Guinoism.

Flourish is ranked 190,454^th in the world and 180^th in The Amaranthine Isles for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -1.41 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
