The Queendom of Fern Walters is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.536 billion Fern Waltersians 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 large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and International Aid. The average income tax rate is 42.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Fern Waltersian economy, worth 169 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,326 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The art of conversation has been rediscovered, the nation's generous tax credits have brought all the film studios to the yard, the mood of raunchy movies is often ruined by the sound of babies crying, and proper policy proposals prerequire professional peer-reviewed papers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fern Walters's national animal is the aardvark, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fern Walters is ranked 41,414^th in the world and 912^th in Ambition for Safest, scoring 105.35 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
