The Borderlands of Framsburg is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 7.787 billion Framsburgians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 27.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Framsburgian economy, worth 299 trillion pacifiques a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 38,508 pacifiques, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Framsburg's national animal is the Wolverine.

Framsburg is ranked 69,670^th in the world and 114^th in ainulindale for Largest Populations, with 7.79 billion capita.
