The Republic of Forklift Nation is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, daily referendums, and digital currency. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.267 billion Forklift Nationians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 66.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Forklift Nationian economy, worth 126 trillion workplace violations 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 a slick, highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, 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 100,128 workplace violations, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The new coalition government has 99 problems and can't agree on how to fix one, country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, crossword puzzles have been co-opted as a symbol of racial discrimination, and the government is spending millions on 'trust campaigns' in an effort to win back the public's support. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Forklift Nation's national animal is the electric tugger, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Forklift Nation is ranked 289,163^rd in the world and 18^th in Foxtopia for Most Pacifist, with 9.26 cheeks turned per day.
