The Republic of -Fine Motion- is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, devout population of 893 million -Fine Motion-ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 66.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong -Fine Motion-ian economy, worth 60.4 trillion currencies 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 a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. 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 67,691 currencies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Policemen regularly conduct midnight raids on closed donut shops to 'collect evidence', wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", frightened witnesses and seriously ill jurors wear the same handcuffs as the defendant, and the government mails weekly updates on the new anti-junk mail laws to every citizen. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Fine Motion-'s national animal is the animal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

-Fine Motion- is ranked 256,107^th in the world and 659^th in Izern for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -7.29 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
