The Armed Republic of Falkistan is a mid-sized, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 97 million Falkistanians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.5%.

The very strong Falkistanian economy, worth 5.49 trillion Falkans a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. Average income is 56,611 Falkans, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 159,800 per year while the poor average 16,053, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, the nation's soldiers sleep four to a bed in order to use space economically, organ donation is compulsory, and military spending recently hit a new high. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Falkistan's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon.

Falkistan is ranked 252,916^th in the world and 970^th in Concord for Least Corrupt Governments, with 91.28 percentage of bribes refused.
