The Republic of Farki is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, otherworldly petting zoo, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 681 million Farkians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Administration, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Law & Order receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Albí. The average income tax rate is 12.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Farkian economy, worth 77.9 trillion Francs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 114,322 Francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The television adaptation of Jennifer Government is the most popular program in the nation, the nation's biggest export is stupidity, sofas are perpetually on sales that Must End Soon, and clergy who start talking about politics are forced to take a holy vow of silence. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Farki's national animal is the Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Farki is ranked 280,475th in the world and 11th in Perdita for Nicest Citizens, with 3.13 average smiles per day.
