The ✠ Grand Empire ✠ of Friently is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Bryan von Friently-Hannover VII with an iron fist, and remarkable for its national health service, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 14.854 billion Imperial Citizens 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, although Law & Order is also considered important, while International Aid and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imperial Münich. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The all-consuming Imperial Friently economy, worth a remarkable 5,687 trillion ReichsEuros 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. 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 amazing 382,908 ReichsEuros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

At the edge of the final frontier space's biggest missile platform is about to unfold, the military patrols the streets in search of possible secessionists, Friently recently hosted the least successful trade negotiations since The Phantom Menace, and the might of the entire Imperial Friently Navy is focused on fifty bemused spear-throwing islanders. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Friently's national animal is the German Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Twin Angels.

Friently is ranked 160,804th in the world and 5th in Saint Helene for Most Stationary, with 123.971274825 days.
