The Commonwealth of The Earldom of Fallsbury is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Lord Protector with a fair hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 11.915 billion Fallsburgers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grand Fallsburg. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Fallsburger economy, worth a remarkable 3,846 trillion Counts a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 322,868 Counts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Arthritic surgeons with tremulous fingers reassure patients that they are in safe hands, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, and the TEOFBI Channel Tunnel project is plagued by delays. Crime is totally unknown. The Earldom of Fallsbury's national animal is the Nuckelevee, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Cult of Nemesis.

The Earldom of Fallsbury is ranked 276,021^st in the world and 5^th in The Community for Most Patriotic, with 0.61 flags saluted per person per day.
