The Federal Republic of New-Ferytland is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Federal President Ernst Ekehard with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 5.019 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 tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rotterdar. The average income tax rate is 4.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New-Ferytlandian economy, worth 999 trillion Florens a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 199,169 Florens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military pilots spend more time scraping feathers off their engines than flying their aircraft, economic output is rising as the chronically depressed are persuaded not to burden society, Dogman-branded weapons are all the rage in the militaristic comic-book community, and there's nothing more gay than bleeding for your nation. 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 122,553^rd in the world and 2,564^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,027.04 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
