The Fish of the North of ForFishing is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Nemo with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, fear of technology, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.943 billion ForFishingians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fish City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 73.7%.

The frighteningly efficient ForFishingian economy, worth 883 trillion Fish Coins a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 224,016 Fish Coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 704,703 per year while the poor average 54,487, a ratio of 12.9 to 1.

Social care for the elderly consists of a self help leaflet and a kick on the backside, kids are told they can be whoever they want to be when they grow up, nobody draws smiley faces on receipts anymore, and faking deafness is the only way to guarantee a holiday in the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ForFishing's national animal is the Fish, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

ForFishing is ranked 6,755^th in the world and 94^th in The North Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 1,095 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
