The Republic of Folderol Fiddledeedee is a titanic, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 23.112 billion Folderol Fiddledeedeeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 69.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Folderol Fiddledeedeean economy, worth 457 trillion farthings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is 19,801 farthings, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voting is compulsory and vegetarianism is compulsory. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Folderol Fiddledeedee's national animal is the ferret, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Folderol Fiddledeedee is ranked 105,449^th in the world and 85^th in Equilism for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 815.65 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
