The Borderlands of Francobalkan Peninsula is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 2.559 billion Francobalkan Peninsulans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.

The very strong Francobalkan Peninsulan economy, worth 148 trillion kronor a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 58,157 kronor, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 172,922 per year while the poor average 15,335, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Francobalkan Peninsula's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Francobalkan Peninsula is ranked 287,776^th in the world and 16,006^th in Osiris for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 8.02 Effective Tax Rate.
