The Loving Couple of -F4n-Art- is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Flora D'Splora with an iron fist, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, public floggings, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.886 billion -F4n-Art-ians 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."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Boiling Isles. The average income tax rate is 68.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient -F4n-Art-ian economy, worth 503 trillion snails a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Cheese Exports, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 103,075 snails, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Anniversaries of major historical events pass unnoticed, large areas of -F4n-Art- are not accessible by the public, official government guidance encourages binge behaviors, and the army consists of only generals and grunts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -F4n-Art-'s national animal is the owl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Cards.
-F4n-Art- is ranked 59,755th in the world and 47th in Cape of Good Hope for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.84 law-abiding acts per hour.
