The Flacco Fever of New Stonkopolis is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Joseph Vincent Flacco with an iron fist, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, pith helmet sales, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 4.488 billion Flaccoes are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Indianapolis. The average income tax rate is 45.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Flaccan economy, worth 706 trillion Footballs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 157,401 Footballs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The nation has nearly as many history museums as Flaccoes, gun-wielding criminals always wear appropriate eye and ear protection, this summer's chart-toppers sound almost the same as last year's, and popular sunny beaches always have a cloudy outlook. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Stonkopolis's national animal is the Flacco, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Flaccite.

New Stonkopolis is ranked 281,895th in the world and 10th in Archai for Most Ignorant Citizens, with 1.32 missed references per hour.
