The Kongerige of Frisemark is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Niketa Færir with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 6.787 billion Frisik enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hagenav. The average income tax rate is 85.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Frisik economy, worth 782 trillion kroner a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 115,357 kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, a suspicious number of John Smiths are known to donate to Frisik politicians, the meaning of life was recently discovered in the patch notes for Version 1.42, and every school is receiving a brand new eraser. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Frisemark's national animal is the Giant Petrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Frisemark is ranked 288,911th in the world and 280th in Eurth for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -7.48 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
