The Fanatical Federation of Freedom Fascists is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by First Freeman with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 7.127 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Defence, although Education and Healthcare are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Libertyopolis. The average income tax rate is 68%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining industries.

Badminton was recently banned due to 'unacceptable violence' inherent to the game, police officers have been re-kitted with designer uniforms and gold plated handcuffs, people are now classified as male, female, or genderqueer, and a crusade against barbaric religious practices has begun. Crime is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Freedom Fascists's national animal is the tyrannosaurus rex, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the diablo.

Freedom Fascists is ranked 4,257th in The East Pacific and 100,459th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -10 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
