The Democratic Republic of Freered is a mid-sized, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service, prohibition of alcohol, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical population of 82 million Freeredians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 67.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Freeredian economy, worth 1.73 trillion chips a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Information Technology. Average income is 21,084 chips, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A stitch in time could see you serving nine, forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, stolen Reuben sandwiches are met with detailed and thorough police investigations, and potatoes are known for their lead aftertaste. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Freered's national animal is the monkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Freered is ranked 316,028^th in the world and 503^rd in Edoca for Most Developed, scoring 46.77 on the Human Development Index.
