The Holy Empire of FPC003 is a mammoth, orderly nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, flagrant waste-dumping, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 6.801 billion FPC003ians 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 enormous, corrupt government prioritizes Administration, with Law & Order, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Education and Spirituality receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 81.7%.

The frighteningly efficient FPC003ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,054 trillion Guilders a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 155,111 Guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Giving up when the going gets tough is all the rage, psychological disorders are a taboo subject, drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, and the law is more interested in punishing crime than preventing it. Crime is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. FPC003's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

FPC003 is ranked 139,881st in the world and 7,362nd in Lazarus for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 8,815.03 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
