The Federal Republic of Fallgriffin is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Maj Gen Greogory Twilight with an iron fist, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, smutty television, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 16.091 billion Fallgriffinians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Industry, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of South NorthWest East Lawndale. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Fallgriffinian economy, worth a remarkable 6,218 trillion chromium kaegyds a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 386,476 chromium kaegyds, with the richest citizens earning 9.5 times as much as the poorest.

Tech-mad citizens think that the laser-powered bread-slicer uPhone App is the coolest thing since sliced bread, little girls are in tears as Maj Gen Greogory Twilight confiscates their pink princess ballgowns, nations that kill a Fallgriffinian can expect a strongly worded letter, and Little League matches are often attended by riot police with water cannon... just in case. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Fallgriffin's national animal is the Ferret, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Maj Gen Gregory Twilight warship.

Fallgriffin is ranked 12,809^th in the world and 171^st in the West Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 62.2 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
