The Free Land of Fren Zon is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory vegetarianism, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 721 million Fren Zonians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tartesso. The average income tax rate is 79.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Fren Zonian economy, worth 40.5 trillion rupees a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. Average income is 56,144 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is no other place with more lab coats per square mile than former houses of worship, every politician claims to be at least 1% Native Fren Zonian, films are funded in accordance with the volume of tears shed when reading the screenplay, and the government's religious works are headed by a New Age guru. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fren Zon's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
