The Social-Democratic Republic of Die Friedlichelaender is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President Andreas Held with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 10.412 billion Friedlichens 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Heiterstadt. The average income tax rate is 99.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Die Friedlichelaenderian economy, worth a remarkable 2,192 trillion Pfunds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 210,543 Pfunds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens with artificial limbs are forbidden to serve as beauty pageant judges, organ donation rates have hit a new low, life is somewhat repetitive, and the old neighbourhood isn't how most Friedlichens remember it. Crime is totally unknown. Die Friedlichelaender's national animal is the Taube, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Die Friedlichelaender is ranked 298,810th in the world and 15,056th in Chicken overlords for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -6.32 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
