The Republic of Festdidgea is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Nirzum Radzidar with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.704 billion Festdidgeans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kardin Videgi. The average income tax rate is 89.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Festdidgean economy, worth 780 trillion Dong a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. Average income is 72,940 Dong, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Some paycheques only arrive every 12 to 24 weeks, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, "Nirzum Radzidar got your tongue?" has become a popular idiom, and children are raised bilingual from an early age. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Festdidgea's national animal is the Ibis, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is NO RELIGION BABYYYYY.

Festdidgea is ranked 290,760^th in the world and 5,482^nd in the South Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -19.95 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
