“Fierce”

The Democratic Socialist Nation of FeroshiaCotura is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Ray Xavier with a fair hand, and renowned for its restrictive gun laws. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 3.808 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, the Environment, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fiercetopia. The average income tax rate is 100%. A healthy private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, organised sports are frowned upon as frivolous, euthanasia is legal, and the government is reining in public spending. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. FeroshiaCotura's national animal is the Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Fierce.

FeroshiaCotura is ranked 155th in the region and 11,779th in the world for Largest Basket Weaving Sector.
