The Colony of Fredericksen is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its restrictive gun laws and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 4.251 billion Fredericksenians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 21.9%.

The very strong Fredericksenian economy, worth 261 trillion aurums a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 61,457 aurums, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation is compulsory and citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force. Fredericksen's national animal is the bovina.

Fredericksen is ranked 181,102^nd in the world and 1^st in Enemy of the State for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.34 law-abiding acts per hour.
