The Fish of the North of ForFishing is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Nemo with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and conspicuous electricity pylons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 3.862 billion ForFishingians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fish City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 79.2%.

The frighteningly efficient ForFishingian economy, worth 888 trillion Fish Coins a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 230,105 Fish Coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 683,169 per year while the poor average 60,801, a ratio of 11.2 to 1.

The sound of office water cooler chatter has been replaced by the whirring of computer cooling fans, people say that cubists are rubbish because they can't draw faces, the nation has reverted back to an agrarian society after anything more advanced than the wheel was banned, and door-to-door salesmen are frequently beaten up by 'vigilantes'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ForFishing's national animal is the Fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

ForFishing is ranked 53,312th in the world and 1,237th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 71 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
