The Viking Empire of Frayst0n is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by King Askeladd with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.836 billion Fraystonions are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Administration, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jomsborg. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Frayst0nian economy, worth 298 trillion Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 105,201 Marks, with the richest citizens earning 9.8 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's declaring that sharing nukes is caring, the backs of 'No Trespassing' signs were made for you and me, heartbroken parents are urged to "smile for the camera", and war criminals are given full state funerals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Frayst0n's national animal is the Wolf, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Old Norse Paganism.

Frayst0n is ranked 212,619^th in the world and 8^th in Urseom for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 291.53 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
