The Sośal Consrvativ Republic of Fourian is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Boris Kennison with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, rampant corporate plagiarism, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 13.402 billion Forrikans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tostović. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 91.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Forrikan economy, worth a remarkable 1,800 trillion Bludmarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 134,357 Bludmarks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 438,463 per year while the poor average 30,971, a ratio of 14.2 to 1.

Refugees from other nations are flocking to Fourian's border, trying to toast marshmallows in an electric fireplace just isn't the same, dessert dishes make up the Forrikan breakfast menu, and Fourian's fine wines are renowned throughout the region. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fourian's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Fourian is ranked 831^st in the world and 2^nd in Empire of Great Britain for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 17,248.38 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
