The Federal Republic of New-Ferytland is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Federal President Ernst An'Grief with an even hand, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, pith helmet sales, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed population of 3.759 billion Ferytlandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rotterdar. The average income tax rate is 42.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New-Ferytlandian economy, worth 687 trillion Florens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 183,000 Florens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Getting an infected tattoo is considered a rite of passage in New-Ferytland, the institution of marriage is held sacred and strictly enforced, in distant lands the nation is known as a lovely place that was even better in the good old days, and there has been a rapid increase of noise complaints over the sound of buzzing bees. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New-Ferytland's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Orthodoxie.

New-Ferytland is ranked 115,270^th in the world and 3,342^nd in The North Pacific for Most Income Equality, scoring 33.42 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
