The Armed Republic of IFOC is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its smutty television, punitive income tax rates, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 802 million IFOCians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 68.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The IFOCian economy, worth 49.6 trillion baht a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 61,829 baht, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation threatens sanctions on islands only visible at low tide, literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts, the Farmer's Almanac is the most popular college textbook, and immigrants who don't like the taste of IFOCian Turnip Chips are immediately deported. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. IFOC's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

IFOC is ranked 76,676^th in the world and 117^th in Avril Lavigne Nation for Most Corrupt Governments, with 26.22 kickbacks per hour.
