The Republic of Ferric is a colossal, pleasant nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working population of 2.659 billion Ferricians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 18.8%.

The strong Ferrician economy, worth 129 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Pizza Delivery, and Gambling. Average income is 48,760 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

A major religion has been named as Ferric's national religion, Leader has just been declared ruler of Ferric in an international press conference, Ferric has designated Ferric City as its capital city, and the sick and dying are locked in their homes with a red "X" painted on the front door. Crime is moderate. Ferric's national animal is the shoop, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ferric is ranked 226,803^rd in the world and 1^st in Aragonite for Highest Food Quality, scoring 11.9 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
