The Republic of Fushcor is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Gorge Vaas with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 5.104 billion Fushkorans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bloresia. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fushcorian economy, worth 666 trillion Krasordis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 130,652 Krasordis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Park rangers struggle to deal with a rash of stolen pic-a-nic baskets, police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, it's a marvellous night for a moon dance as the sparks on your home start to rise, and crossword puzzles have been co-opted as a symbol of racial discrimination. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fushcor's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

Fushcor is ranked 28,632^nd in the world and 2^nd in Lyrali for Lowest Crime Rates, with 83.68 law-abiding acts per hour.
