The Viking Horde of Fridas

“Knowing Ourselves We Aspire and Advance as One”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Viking Horde of Fridas is a massive, safe nation, notable for its daily referendums, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.489 billion Fridasians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 53.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Fridasian economy, worth 86.2 trillion lirsens a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 57,884 lirsens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

The government says that Possession is nine-tenths of the Lore, life expectancy is way down but posthuman perfectionism is way up, pedants defending Leader observe that psychopaths and sociopaths aren't exactly the same thing, and a major religion has been named as Fridas's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fridas's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Fridas is ranked 151,564^th in the world and 303^rd in Starlight for Most Developed, scoring 55.43 on the Human Development Index.
