The Federal Republic of New-Ferytland is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Federal President Walter Weller with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-working population of 6.306 billion Ferytlandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rotterdar. The average income tax rate is 36.1%.

The frighteningly efficient New-Ferytlandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,465 trillion Florens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 232,349 Florens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 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, primetime re-runs of The Black and White Minstrel Show are a critical hit, the government prides itself on being smug and condescending to idiots, and country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. New-Ferytland's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Orthodoxie.

New-Ferytland is ranked 39,948^th in the world and 799^th in The North Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 5,022.91 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
