The Kingdom of Fahran is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Queen Hazea I with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 19.212 billion Fahranis are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haqara. The average income tax rate is 70.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fahrani economy, worth a remarkable 2,184 trillion Rials a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 113,699 Rials, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The contraband cigarette trade is lighting up across Fahran, the nation's prisons are touted as the best weight loss programs money can't buy, young girls often attend the same schools as their children, and child labor has been outlawed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fahran's national animal is the Scipian Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Azdarin.

Fahran is ranked 36,354^th in the world and 6^th in Ajax for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 224.9 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
