The Holy Empire of Fries 15 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its digital currency, ritual sacrifices, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 2.816 billion Fries 15ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 49.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Fries 15ian economy, worth 193 trillion Frieses a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 68,710 Frieses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The masses are surrendering their civil liberties without complaint for the sake of shopping convenience, billions of Frieses are being poured into a space program, people who stay late at the office often come home to find their own funeral being planned, and Fries 15 Barrier Island residents anxiously await their 'Bridge to Somewhere'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fries 15's national animal is the Potato, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Fries 15 is ranked 63,184^th in the world and 8^th in The Fries for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 11,281.2 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
