The Biggest build a bear of Folkmore is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Taylor Swift with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, disturbing lack of elderly people, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, devout population of 3.262 billion Folkmoreans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Taylorland. The average income tax rate is 47.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Folkmorean economy, worth 274 trillion Taylor Bucks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 83,998 Taylor Bucks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Elections have recently been reintroduced to Folkmore, it is popularly believed that "cheese every day keeps disaster away", a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, and old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Folkmore's national animal is the Taylor Fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Taylor Swiftism.

Folkmore is ranked 37,249^th in the world and 2,055^th in Balder for Most Cultured, scoring 76 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
