The Republic of Falalaland is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Santa with an even hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 4.053 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The large, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Commerce, Healthcare, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Retail industries.

Reindeers are frequently shot for looking at people 'in a funny way', the FBI Channel Tunnel project is plagued by delays, citizens receive notices of disenfranchisement along with their parking tickets, and punitive tariffs protect local industry. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is moderate. Falalaland's national animal is the reindeer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Happiness, and its currency is the gift.

Falalaland is ranked 83rd in Kyzikos and 18,494th in the world for Stupidest Citizens, scoring 13 on the Average Edu-UNtellignce® Test Score.
