The Democratic Republic of Fernandland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by H with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed population of 21.936 billion Fernandlandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fernandland City. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Fernandlandian economy, worth a remarkable 4,473 trillion HOCS a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 203,953 HOCS, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Code enforcement officers circle wealthy Fernandlandians like vultures, rude retail employees are now even ruder homeless panhandlers, H's media campaigns take a hiatus around exam week, and forgetting to pay your annual passport bill is a leading cause of deportations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fernandland's national animal is the Cheetah, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Fernandland is ranked 5,791st in the world and 11th in Canada for Lowest Crime Rates, with 112.92 law-abiding acts per hour.
