The Honorable Foxes of Fotar is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Fotar of the Foxes with an even hand, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, sprawling nuclear power plants, and daily referendums. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 35.328 billion Foxes of Fotar are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Goldwood. The average income tax rate is 60.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fotarian economy, worth a remarkable 3,467 trillion Golden Lions a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,165 Golden Lions, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Property values in suburbs have nosedived after the middle class were forced to live next door to ethnic minorities, girls who wear lipstick are berated for pandering to male gazes, government opponents tend to have their patents rejected immediately, and tourists outnumber citizens two to one. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fotar's national animal is the Red Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Fotar is ranked 7,181st in the world and 1st in The Council of Narnia for Most Cultured, scoring 138 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
