The Magical Islands of Fivalia is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Aelithilithos with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 7.486 billion Fivalians 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 enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nawtig. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Fivalian economy, worth a remarkable 1,271 trillion pieces a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 169,889 pieces, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Museums offer moralization or your money back, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, clothing with a scarlet S is popular among repentant body shamers, and the Fivalian government is the world's largest NGO. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fivalia's national animal is the dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Unorganized Sardior Worship.

Fivalia is ranked 305,334^th in the world and 41^st in Cape of Good Hope for Fattest Citizens, with 2.94 Obesity Rate.
