The Green Regency of Ferrianona is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by This Velvet Glove with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and compulsory vegetarianism. The compassionate, cheerful population of 35.419 billion Ferrianonans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cithog. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Ferrianonan economy, worth an astonishing 20,157 trillion Gold Farthings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is a breathtaking 569,102 Gold Farthings, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss, graffiti is done with immaculate multi-layer shading, and the monarch frequently needs protecting from misfiring protection. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ferrianona's national animal is the Nox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Deism.

Ferrianona is ranked 99^th in the world and 2^nd in The Communist Bloc for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 1,800.78 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
