The Denmark of Fakelanda is a titanic, cultured nation, renowned for its ritual sacrifices, zero percent divorce rate, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 13.581 billion Fakelandans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. The average income tax rate is 48.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fakelandan economy, worth a remarkable 1,766 trillion kronor a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 130,040 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Exterminators swarm Fakelandan homes, billions of kronor are spent to take high-quality photos of the Leopard Nebula, hell hath no fury like an ocean scorned, and snowball fights inaugurate summer breaks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fakelanda's national animal is the leopard, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Fakelanda is ranked 41,144^th in the world and 551^st in eta for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,203.19 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
