The Hypertension Headache of Fjolmidlum is a titanic, socially progressive nation, notable for its state-planned economy, compulsory vegetarianism, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The democratic, cheerful population of 10.965 billion Fjols are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The relatively small, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Administration, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kallisti. The average income tax rate is 27.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fjolish economy, worth a remarkable 1,647 trillion Kroner 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Retail, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, 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 an impressive 150,214 Kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation locks people up and tells them they're mad for compassion's sake, people with hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia faint upon diagnosis, the most recent election was a close race between Leader and Leader, and future leaders of Fjolmidlum regularly dismiss pressing political issues when available options don't conform to their worldview. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Fjolmidlum's national animal is the Predator Drone, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Erisianism.

Fjolmidlum is ranked 16,205^th in the world and 1^st in The International Union of Boygirls for Nicest Citizens, with 23.8 average smiles per day.
