The Democratic Federation of East Fredonia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Carlton with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.007 billion East Fredonians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lumière. The average income tax rate is 86.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient East Fredonian economy, worth 996 trillion bitcoins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 165,920 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Preschools put children down for naps with milk, cookies, and a gruesome story of vengeance, weapons produced by newly nationalized armaments factories have been found to contain sawdust instead of gunpowder, anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper, and the regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb. Crime is totally unknown. East Fredonia's national animal is the Porg, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

East Fredonia is ranked 10,924^th in the world and 61^st in Social Liberal Union for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 4,349.61 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
