The United Empire of Foudina is a massive, safe nation, ruled by James Wilbur with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 1.91 billion Foudians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Losdonia City. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Foudian economy, worth 322 trillion Foudian Euros a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 168,975 Foudian Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crossword puzzles have been co-opted as a symbol of racial discrimination, dinner parties often end in politically charged fist fights, youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights, and scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Foudina's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is None.

Foudina is ranked 164,626^th in the world and 818^th in Europe for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 802.02 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
