The Benevolent Kingdom of Fendlium is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by King William III with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 3.358 billion Fendlians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Invercauld. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 82.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Fendlian economy, worth 613 trillion Fendlian Dollars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 182,794 Fendlian Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's new foreign policy of 'very disproportionate retribution' has its neighbors on edge, UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news, the institution of marriage is held sacred and strictly enforced, and new arrivals are asked the location of the Minister of the Interior's birthmark. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fendlium's national animal is the Wild Boar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Fendlicanism.

Fendlium is ranked 128,257^th in the world and 5,745^th in The North Pacific for Most Pro-Market, scoring 38.33 on the Rand Index.
