The Democratic Republic of Fengle is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.012 billion Fengleans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Xijing. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fenglean economy, worth 178 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 176,565 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Toxic smog is dismissed as the populace just "letting off steam", the government has to take out its Visa to eliminate visas, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, and a signed affidavit from a prominent anti-corruption advocate declares that he is in fact a crook after all. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fengle's national animal is the squirrel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Fengle is ranked 26,594th in the world and 1,218th in The North Pacific for Most Influential, scoring 2,163 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
