The Protectorate of Frogmouth is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 7.519 billion Frogmouthians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 37.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Frogmouthian economy, worth 228 trillion florins 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 slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, Tourism, and Soda Sales. 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 30,443 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Frogmouth's national animal is the panther.

Frogmouth is ranked 200,738th in the world and 7,084th in Osiris for Most Armed, with 0.26 weapons per person.
