The Oppressed Peoples of Fthia is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 5.159 billion Fthians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The minute government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 5.8%.

The strong Fthian economy, worth 321 trillion kronor a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 62,374 kronor, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Fthia's national animal is the myrmeke, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fthia is ranked 313,850^th in the world and 278^th in Forest for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -5.48 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
