The Kingdom of Forae Augs is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 753 million Foraes are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 35.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Forae economy, worth 45.2 trillion Augines a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,071 Augines, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign governments are threatened if they so much as mention the word "election", old warplanes and tanks that break down can't be repaired since no one makes the parts anymore, pinkie promises are a matter of life and death, and structures are raised on promises. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Forae Augs's national animal is the Black Panther, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Forae Augs is ranked 75,209^th in the world and 650^th in the West Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 127.67 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
