“Mission Accomplished”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Republic of Falefon 13 is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 1.316 billion Falefon 13ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 28.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Falefon 13ian economy, worth 44.5 trillion rubles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,782 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Falefon 13's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Falefon 13 is ranked 184,274^th in the world and 3^rd in Fairy Tail for Largest Black Market, with 634 billion Standard Monetary Units.
