The Rogue Nation of Flaridia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, state-planned economy, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.568 billion Flaridians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while Social Policy isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 70.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Flaridian economy, worth 202 trillion Dollagators 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Retail. 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 impressive 129,032 Dollagators, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track, escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, news editors who eschew the state-approved superlatives for describing Leader tend to disappear, and the best spies are positively radiant after completing a big mission. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flaridia's national animal is the Aligator, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Flaridia is ranked 189,062nd in the world and 14th in Ijaka for Largest Populations, with 1.57 billion capita.
