The Loving Couple of -4rt Fan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Bat Queen with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.965 billion -4rt Fanians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Boiling Isles. The average income tax rate is 61.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse -4rt Fanian economy, worth 491 trillion snails a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,896 snails, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Debates on whether toilet seats should be left up or down are increasingly commonplace, teen parties are often ruined by wet blanket chaperones, whales in captivity live in little more than glorified goldfish bowls, and criminals are really screwed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -4rt Fan's national animal is the owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cards.

-4rt Fan is ranked 231,154^th in the world and 90^th in Middle Earth for Most Beautiful Environments, with 402.04 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
