The 3rd Socialist Confederation of Freeedu is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Confederate Chairman with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 6.887 billion Freeedusians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Center of Revolution. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Freeedusian economy, worth a remarkable 1,903 trillion Universal Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 276,332 Universal Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, the nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air, the nation has declared its intention to "stretch out", and being Confederate Chairman has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Freeedu's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Rutherian.

Freeedu is ranked 5,728^th in the world and 259^th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 157 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
