The Dictatorship of the proletar of Fardel is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Great Leader with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, ubiquitous missile silos, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.726 billion Fardelians 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, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Education also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Faradel city. The average income tax rate is 97.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Fardelian economy, worth 876 trillion Faradrubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 321,353 Faradrubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's most popular sport is sabotaging foreigners' hopes and dreams, tourists are kicked out if they express interest in their national sport, Great Leader's new office has a propensity to catch on fire, and serial killers are the country's biggest import. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fardel's national animal is the fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cult of the Leader.

Fardel is ranked 58,962^nd in the world and 1,785^th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 70 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
