The Incorporated States of Freinova is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.862 billion Freinovans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.6%.

The strong Freinovan economy, worth 108 trillion Credits a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 58,057 Credits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 374,182 per year while the poor average 3,639, a ratio of 102 to 1.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts.

Freinova's national animal is the Sandworm, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Freinova is ranked 223,237^th in the world and 7,104^th in Osiris for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 96.16 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
