The Federation of Northern Egalitaria is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 230 million Northern Egalitarians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 54.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Northern Egalitarian economy, worth 6.71 trillion francs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,167 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government reports are now used to teach toddlers to read, surprising numbers of poor people are protesting against taxing the rich, forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, and couples are discouraged from marrying until they can rank their partner on a scale of one to ten. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern Egalitaria's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Northern Egalitaria is ranked 34,121^st in the world and 24^th in Ridgefield for Safest, scoring 107.51 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
