The Grand Duchy of Forstuline is a small, safe nation, remarkable for its flagrant waste-dumping and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 40 million Forstuliners enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 10.0%.

The very strong Forstulinean economy, worth 3.01 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 75,344 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Ritual mummification is making a comeback, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, the fire protection service is wholly government-funded, and Leader spends weekends doing the laundry of foreign leaders. Crime is totally unknown. Forstuline's national animal is the Scarlet Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Forstuline is ranked 181,760^th in the world and 450^th in Concord for Most Corrupt Governments, with 2.7 kickbacks per hour.
