The United Empire of Foudina is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by James Wilbur with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, frequent executions, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate population of 1.886 billion Foudians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Losdonia City. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Foudian economy, worth 316 trillion Foudian Euros a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 167,876 Foudian Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality, the government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, only persecuted professionals need apply for asylum, and tourists call Foudian beach towns "the fine coastline". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Foudina's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is None.

Foudina is ranked 67,600^th in the world and 715^th in Europe for Safest, scoring 95.79 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
