The Retired Nation of Fratanica is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Lukas Wolf with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 19.166 billion Fratanicans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it prioritizes Healthcare, with Defense, Environment, and Law & Order also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Viras. The average income tax rate is 85.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Fratanican economy, worth a remarkable 1,221 trillion Frats a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 63,733 Frats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People accuse the government of being in bed with Big Safety, court cases mostly involve lawyers shouting questions at witnesses giving silent shrugs, access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, and Fratanica's heavy congestion charges are the bane of motorists' lives. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fratanica's national animal is the Lafret Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fratanica is ranked 280,102nd in the world and 5,352nd in The North Pacific for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 49.68 Workforce Participation Rate.
