The Free Land of Fish Oil is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 36.892 billion Fish Oilians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Fish Oilian economy, worth a remarkable 8,667 trillion gold tensoes a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 234,944 gold tensoes, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,408,404 per year while the poor average 17,766, a ratio of 79.3 to 1.

Meetings involving club finances are frequently broken up by men in black suits, strict term limits have been applied to all elected offices, stone wrist watches that weigh 20lb are the latest trend, and houses and businesses are bulldozed to make way for ever-expanding cemeteries. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Fish Oil's national animal is the cat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Fish Oil is ranked 290,298^th in the world and 11,277^th in Balder for Safest, scoring 3.39 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
