The Democratic Republic of Foradini is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Sir Papereski with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.248 billion Foradinians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Asterora. The average income tax rate is 78.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Foradinian economy, worth 551 trillion romanettoes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 105,071 romanettoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Airport users are more worried about radiation than terrorism, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, children as young as six shock their parents by coming out of the closet, and the government seizes private property for the 'good of the people'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Foradini's national animal is the goose, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Foradini is ranked 15,484^th in the world and 173^rd in Europeia for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 3,656.96 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
