The Guiding Light of Imperial Phoenix Terra is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Imperial Phoenix Septeu with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, otherworldly petting zoo, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 29.879 billion Imperial Phoenix Terrans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Terra Prime. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Imperial Phoenix Terran economy, worth a remarkable 4,868 trillion credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 162,947 credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, there's a hole in the heart of every Imperial Phoenix Terran city, and visiting the best Imperial Phoenix Terran restaurants requires keeping a visa on file. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Imperial Phoenix Terra's national animal is the phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is three major religions and one holy city.

Imperial Phoenix Terra is ranked 4,850^th in the world and 111^th in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 571.79 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
