The Incorporated States of Fortytipper is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Armstrong Getty with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, unlimited-speed roads, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 31.231 billion Fortytipperians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The minute, liberal government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Education, although Healthcare is also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy are ignored. Income tax is unheard of.
The frighteningly efficient Fortytipperian economy, worth a remarkable 7,446 trillion Duckets a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 238,433 Duckets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Government ministers have eclectic tastes in curtains, prisoners can't do number twos without their "toilet buddy" present, printing out government documents requires the approval of at least three admins, and fifteen-year-olds cannot walk younger siblings to school without a professional Childcare and Education Certificate. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Fortytipper's national animal is the Honey Badger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Fortytipper is ranked 148,176th in the world and 2,966th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 170.36411318912 days.
