The Queen's Army of Fergustan is a mammoth, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 5.496 billion Fergustanians 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 medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 31.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Fergustanian economy, worth 180 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 32,905 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown. Fergustan's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Fergustan is ranked 128,279th in the world and 6,748th in Osiris for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 586.72 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
