The Federal Republic of Faigypan is a very large, efficient nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 463 million Faigypanians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corpon. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 26.3%.

The powerhouse Faigypanian economy, worth 30.3 trillion Faicoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 65,354 Faicoins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 251,898 per year while the poor average 11,658, a ratio of 21.6 to 1.

Surfers ride tsunamis of record height and toxicity, search and rescue forces now accept cheques and all major credit cards, rap artists are regularly arrested for promoting extremist groups, and new legislators take a week-long class entitled "Keeping Your Job: How to Avoid Offending Leader". Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Faigypan's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Faigypan is ranked 304,637^th in the world and 321^st in Aesica for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 24.2 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
