The Empire of Flyingfox is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Sam Harrison with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 16.746 billion Flyingfoxians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gotham City. The average income tax rate is 17.3%.

The very strong Flyingfoxian economy, worth 977 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 58,390 bitcoins, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Prudishness is on the way out, everyone wants to be on the guest list for diplomatic parties, prisoners regularly escape detention posing as scarecrows, and Sam Harrison's new door-knocking campaign has the sweet taste of success. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Flyingfox's national animal is the horse and its national religion is Scientology.

Flyingfox is ranked 252,696^th in the world and 1^st in Pacifist Regions for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 22.58 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
