The Free Land of Fiparatus is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Otto Von Skorzeny with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and public floggings. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.798 billion Fiparatusians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Execopolis. The average income tax rate is 76.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Fiparatusian economy, worth 468 trillion marxes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 123,262 marxes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, children are often punished for the sins of the fathers, the nation was recently voted as the most stylish in The Order of the Grey Wardens, and the justice of Fiparatus is considered superior to that of other nations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fiparatus's national animal is the desert fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Religious Liberty.

Fiparatus is ranked 15,974^th in the world and 22^nd in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,357.84 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
