The Protectorate of Fourtheye is a mammoth, efficient nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, compulsory military service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5.233 billion Fourtheyeans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed, including voting. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Education, with Environment, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Administration are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.8%.

The all-consuming Fourtheyean economy, worth 453 trillion tools a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Retail. Average income is 86,650 tools, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 284,686 per year while the poor average 19,776, a ratio of 14.4 to 1.

Hospitals have unveiled new guidelines suggesting that latex gloves do not count as clothing, divorce lawyers are found begging on the streets, young girls aren't having a ball but they are enjoying themselves, and agriculture is heavily subsidized by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Fourtheye's national animal is the puscifer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Fourtheye is ranked 237,317^th in the world and 886^th in Concord for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -5.1 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
