The Kingdom of Firedale is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, democratic population of 367 million Firedaleans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Firedale City. The average income tax rate is 27.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Firedalean economy, worth 18.6 trillion Phps a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 50,663 Phps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation sends criminals home to think about what they did, customer satisfaction with online delivery services is at an all time high, handsome young men are forced into uniforms by their dominant elders, and adulthood begins with the creation of an email account. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Firedale's national animal is the Lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Firedale is ranked 144,423^rd in the world and 71^st in UEPU Federal Republic for Highest Food Quality, scoring 17.72 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
