The Republic of FPC002 is a mammoth, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, enslaved workforce, and astonishingly minimal parenting. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 6.672 billion FPC002ians 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, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 42.1%.

The frighteningly efficient FPC002ian economy, worth 821 trillion rupees a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Gambling, Uranium Mining, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 123,057 rupees, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 393,902 per year while the poor average 29,182, a ratio of 13.5 to 1.

A petition to improve FPC002ian literacy is mostly signed with cross-marks, people are left scratching their heads at the government's decisions, there's more pink stuff on sale these days, and soup kitchens are the only things doing roaring business. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. FPC002's national animal is the fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

FPC002 is ranked 308,429th in the world and 12,108th in Balder for Most Cultured, scoring 5 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
