The Onion Hater of The Forish is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Goober with an even hand, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, triple-decker prams, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.202 billion Forish 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flibberdonk. The average income tax rate is 65.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Forish economy, worth 205 trillion Forish Coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 93,255 Forish Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, and plain-clothes police officers follow Dàguó tourists everywhere they go. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The Forish's national animal is the Forish Crackhead, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Forishism.

The Forish is ranked 39,601st in the world and 619th in the South Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,284.69 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
