The Serene Dominion of Fort Concord is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 608 million Fort Concordians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lawrence. The average income tax rate is 76.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Fort Concordian economy, worth 13.8 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 22,644 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fort Concordian soldiers are assured their new ray-guns will finally power up after the next round of ominous chanting, getting an autograph has become harder than ever, convicted criminals are given free limo rides to jail, and the nation has nearly as many history museums as Fort Concordians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fort Concord's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Fort Concord is ranked 242,585^th in the world and 298^th in Concord for Most Developed, scoring 49.78 on the Human Development Index.
