The Republic of Fachu 51 is a very large, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 230 million Fachu 51ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government prioritizes Law & Order, with Defense, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 46.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Fachu 51ian economy, worth 7.92 trillion marks a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,444 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs, wanting a better life for your child is prohibited by a clause in the criminal code, parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, and foreign policy is mostly just to smile and hope for the best. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fachu 51's national animal is the leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Fachu 51 is ranked 288,234^th in the world and 34^th in Fachu Puppet Storage for Largest Black Market, with 45.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
