The Republic of Figarglyfynciennadanordia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its fear of technology, ritual sacrifices, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.508 billion Figarglyfynciennadanordians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 55.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Figarglyfynciennadanordian economy, worth a remarkable 3,003 trillion florins a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Gambling, Uranium Mining, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 193,649 florins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 981,450 per year while the poor average 21,195, a ratio of 46.3 to 1.
Teenagers are making eye contact with each other for the first time in years, trespassers often find themselves impaled by crossbow bolts, it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, and minorities play dumb to get more welfare payments. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Figarglyfynciennadanordia's national animal is the penguin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Figarglyfynciennadanordia is ranked 10,662nd in the world and 22nd in The Communist Bloc for Most Stationary, with 2,262.69995464888 days.
