The Republic of Fritt Norge is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Statsminister Berg with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate population of 5.026 billion Norwegians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oslo. The average income tax rate is 53.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Norwegian economy, worth 195 trillion Norwegian kroner a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 38,846 Norwegian kroner, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

School children asked "what is two times two?" are likely to form a symposium to discuss how different answers make them feel, open-casket funerals are avoided at all cost, Norwegians are fixin' ta comma any way they wanna, and trust-fund babies line up for places in community college. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fritt Norge's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Ásatrú.

Fritt Norge is ranked 81,856^th in the world and 162^nd in Nordic Lands for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,579.1 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
