The Republic of -FNC- is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its compulsory vegetarianism, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 603 million -FNC-ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 73.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant -FNC-ian economy, worth 4.11 trillion Diamonds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 6,810 Diamonds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fearful citizens watch their every move as does their government, hospitals scramble for new disinfectants following a ban on rubbing alcohol, Leader has taken to wearing medal-adorned military uniform in all public appearances, and TV coverage of music festivals consists mostly of backstage interviews. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -FNC-'s national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

-FNC- is ranked 249,223^rd in the world and 179^th in Sertia for Least Corrupt Governments, with 90.69 percentage of bribes refused.
