The Kingdom of FPC016 is a mammoth, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ban on automobiles, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.521 billion FPC016ians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 74.8%.

The frighteningly efficient FPC016ian economy, worth 770 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Gambling. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 139,482 kronor, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

Street food vendors are accompanied by personal fleets of garbage trucks, the deaf are perplexed when the weather report tells them that the wind will be "bringing some rain along the Nazi ghosts", foreign lack of enthusiasm for FPC016ian nose-flute disco metal is seen as a reasonable casus belli, and sly spies try to rely on national allies so that they don't die. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. FPC016's national animal is the tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

FPC016 is ranked 204,601st in the world and 3rd in Golden Acres for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -1.67 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
