The Fourth Republic of Foldaka is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Raekolen Perelis with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.608 billion Foldakans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Freefolten. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Foldakan economy, worth a remarkable 1,998 trillion Credits 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 large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Uranium Mining. 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 an impressive 188,350 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Birds and children's kites are regularly brought down by anti-aircraft fire, public buses smell like litter boxes, concussed Legari Crowball players cannot remember their lineup position, and boys are forced to pair off for the school disco slow dance as the girls are all staying at home. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Foldaka's national animal is the Legari Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Merkalinism.

Foldaka is ranked 282,982nd in the world and 1,022nd in Talonia for Most Cultured, scoring 55 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
