The Community of Fall County is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Kristell with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.436 billion Fall Countyians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Holy Spirits. The average income tax rate is 58.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Fall Countyian economy, worth 38.2 trillion guilders a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 26,594 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The endangered saltwater humpback Monster is only seen in captivity programs, couples are discouraged from marrying until they can rank their partner on a scale of one to ten, school children asked "what is two times two?" are likely to form a symposium to discuss how different answers make them feel, and graffiti is done with immaculate multi-layer shading. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fall County's national animal is the Monster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Discordianism.

Fall County is ranked 30,479^th in the world and 103^rd in the Outback for Least Corrupt Governments, with 94.05 percentage of bribes refused.
