The Allied Federal Confederation of All Friends Company is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Leaders of the Company Council with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, barren, inhospitable landscape, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 7.007 billion Friends hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Hub. The average income tax rate is 66.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Company economy, worth 664 trillion Crown Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 94,816 Crown Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The new cheese tax is colloquially known as "wheel welfare", foreign nations kill migratory animals at random in the hope that All Friends Company will pay them to stop, parents often leave their kids in the car while they attend mindfulness meditation sessions, and welfare funding has recently gone through the roof. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. All Friends Company's national animal is the Rats, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Pantheon of the Multiple Faiths.
