The People's State of Feyrisshire is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Chief Secretary Amaryllis Chrysantemum with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.432 billion Feyris 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, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Daschime. The average income tax rate is 69.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Feyris economy, worth 47.1 trillion Shyuffies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 32,901 Shyuffies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Autumn landscape paintings feature men stripping leaves from bare branches with a vacuum, military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, vanity is considered the fifth cardinal virtue, and a referendum must be held in order for any new law to be passed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Feyrisshire's national animal is the Froggy Frog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Kyrieism-Ryeifinism.

Feyrisshire is ranked 195,350^th in the world and 851^st in The Communist Bloc for Most Pro-Market, scoring -90.5 on the Rand Index.
