The JRPG of Final Fantasy 4 is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Chocobo with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 8.6 billion Final Fantasy 4ians 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 large, corrupt government prioritizes Administration, with Defense, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Square. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 60.6%.

The powerhouse Final Fantasy 4ian economy, worth 761 trillion guilders a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is 88,497 guilders, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 313,807 per year while the poor average 18,002, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Election ballot papers are so long that unused ones are recycled as toilet roll, nobody likes bad boys any more, the government is reining in public spending, and lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Final Fantasy 4's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Crystals.

Final Fantasy 4 is ranked 296,762^nd in the world and 35^th in Square Enix for Highest Food Quality, scoring 6.04 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
