The United Socialist Republic of Furballland is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Szurigaph Úntiæŕlæva Ķehoriananiuautjial with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 11.054 billion Furballlandians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kanguszapevunn-Yúvíliq-Ğrìģorię. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Furballlandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,751 trillion Furballlandian Zezwagats a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 248,947 Furballlandian Zezwagats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Factories are regularly demolished to make way for low-cost housing areas, back-alley circumcision clinics are popping up all over the nation, guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, and immigrants who carry knives on them are presumed to be chefs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Furballland's national animal is the Tuszuvudszkha Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Szwartschzerveéklædszser.

Furballland is ranked 1,297^th in the world and 50^th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 335 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
