The Federation of Falconhedge is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by FalconHedge with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, pith helmet sales, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 7.194 billion Falconians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Falcis Harbour. The average income tax rate is 73.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Falconhedgean economy, worth a remarkable 1,161 trillion FedFalco Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 161,455 FedFalco Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scientists take credit every time it rains in Lazarus, gymnasts are in awe at the amount of hoops army applicants must jump through, preschoolers outnumber veteran politicians in government, and schoolchildren on field trips are asked what torture means to them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Falconhedge's national animal is the Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
