The Frozen Democratic Republic of Frazikstan is a gargantuan, devout nation, ruled by Nathaniel The Wise with an iron fist, and remarkable for its devotion to social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 16.431 billion are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Defence, with areas such as Social Equality and Commerce receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fraztopia. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Uranium Mining industry.

Several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, the mob and the police have recently had numerous clashes in the back alleys of Frazikstan's cities due to the government's steadfast anti-casino stance, cars are banned, and phone taps are frequently carried out by the police. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Frazikstan's national animal is the Emperor Penguin, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Frazlam, and its currency is the Polar Bear Toenail.

Frazikstan is ranked 5th in Antarctica and 770th in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring 40 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
