The Sandrider of Fedaykin 65 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, soft-spoken computers, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, devout population of 6.462 billion Fedaykin 65ians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 41.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Fedaykin 65ian economy, worth 668 trillion Melange Units a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 103,489 Melange Units, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 342,181 per year while the poor average 23,398, a ratio of 14.6 to 1.

The nation frequently scolds its subject territories for staying up past bedtime, legislators work 24/7 due to an influx of single-issue bills, teenagers are told they're not thinking about sex enough, and state media features lively debates such as whether pineapple on pizza is an acceptable topping. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fedaykin 65's national animal is the maker, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fedaykin 65 is ranked 156,223^rd in the world and 610^th in Memeland United for Most Conservative, scoring 57.67 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
