The State of Franquios is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 37.497 billion Franquiosians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Education also on the agenda, while Welfare and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The thriving Franquiosian economy, worth a remarkable 2,226 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 59,382 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 384,952 per year while the poor average 3,663, a ratio of 105 to 1.

Franquios is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, Franquios has designated Westminster as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Franquios in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Franquios's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Franquios is ranked 328,877^th in the world and 1^st in Saint Barthelemy for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 4.67 Effective Tax Rate.
