The Federal Republic of Fran Advar is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by President Issac Carey with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, zero percent divorce rate, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 8.767 billion Fran Advarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port Bynald. The average income tax rate is 94.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Fran Advarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,176 trillion deniers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 134,214 deniers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

President Issac Carey has been known to make speeches in fishing waders, this year's hottest fashion trend is the Lese Majeste collection, defense lawyers suggestively note to juries how flagrantly happy victims were, and where there's a will there is usually a password manager. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fran Advar's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Fran Advar is ranked 268,625^th in the world and 5,521^st in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -231.6 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
