The Empire of Fouepocha is a mid-sized, safe nation, remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, triple-decker prams, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 82 million Fouepochans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 64.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Fouepochan economy, worth 2.86 trillion Chalnoms a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Tourism. Average income is 34,919 Chalnoms, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Psychological disorders are a taboo subject, several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, children gain their first sex education from reading the dictionary, and beating enemies to death with a baseball bat is legal if done within nine innings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fouepocha's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fouepocha is ranked 118,098th in the world and 176th in Fifth Empire for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 2,103.34 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
