Flyings is governed by a centralised global government known as the United Executive Council (UEC) headed by the President of the United Nations of Flyings. Each individual country is headed by a Prime Minister. Although apparently democratically and freely elected the Prime Ministers and the President are in fact puppets controlled by the Global Elite. The Global Elite are descended from the former monarchies who ruled the Kingdoms of old before the outbreak of democracy a century ago. The Global Elite have achieved their centuries long goal of centralised government with a single currency (the Flyings Dollar), a central bank and control most of their citizens via computer chips and the international police.

Their primary export is crack cocaine which is fed into the water supply to keep the masses under control. In exchange for this they export most of their food produce which has caused mass famines. Citizens have the freedom to travel anywhere on the planet on the world wide train service (less than 5% of the planet's surface is water). Unemployment rate is extremely high as is hyper-inflation due to the government insisting on printing more money to try and deal with a recession but most of the populace are in a drugged stupour and haven't realised this.

Individiuality is not encouraged; strict conformity is governed by the UEC. Facial hair is forbidden for men under 30 with men 30 and over being obliged to wear beards but not moustaches. Following the state religion is compulsory.
