The Dominion of Fidel Edwards is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its burgeoning eagle population. The hard-nosed population of 386 million Fidel Edwardsians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 28.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Fidel Edwardsian economy, worth 13.4 trillion marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Trout Farming, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,805 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, the army's use of chemical weapons leaves a bad taste in the mouth, and the full title of Hon Leader Vcte Mgve MF DFELM GCFEE runs to several pages. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fidel Edwards's national animal is the eagle.

Fidel Edwards is ranked 107,816^th in the world and 18^th in Civiles Conservare for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 186.37 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
