The Democratic Republic of Fufnurus is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, national health service, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The compassionate, democratic population of 724 million Fufnurusi are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 53.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Fufnurus economy, worth 25.9 trillion fufnuru coins a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,736 fufnuru coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, supervisors in Fufnurus commonly tie bells on their necks to alert employees of their presence, antique comic book collectors are disappointed to hear that their treasures are worth exactly as little as their mothers said they were, and courtrooms can be a little sketchy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fufnurus's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fufnurus is ranked 17,463^rd in the world and 19^th in The Black Hawks for Most Pacifist, with 120.3 cheeks turned per day.
