The Republic of Funvilia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 29.595 billion Funvilians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 76.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Funvilian economy, worth a remarkable 1,102 trillion funnies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 37,263 funnies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Funvilia's national animal is the nickel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Funvilia is ranked 124,123^rd in the world and 30^th in Florida for Most Primitive, scoring -49.19 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
