The JRPG of Final Fantasy 6 is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Chocobo with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 9.108 billion Final Fantasy 6ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Square. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 63.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Final Fantasy 6ian economy, worth 904 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 99,307 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 399,420 per year while the poor average 16,523, a ratio of 24.2 to 1.

The beauty of coastal towns is marred only slightly by all the closed-down storefronts, scientists take credit every time it rains in Square Enix, the dartboard at the Final Fantasy 6ian Cancer Research Charity bears a picture of Chocobo's face, and politicians are forced to wear portable lie detectors at all times. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Final Fantasy 6's national animal is the emu, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Crystals.

Final Fantasy 6 is ranked 50,838^th in the world and 11^th in Square Enix for Most Developed, scoring 77.39 on the Human Development Index.
