The Federal Republic of Amicities is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Famagadal Asentis with an even hand, and remarkable for its prohibition of alcohol, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 8.996 billion Amicitiesians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 91.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Amicitiesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,082 trillion franiqs a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 120,358 franiqs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Government officials are held to the highest standard of morality, citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling", birds and children's kites are regularly brought down by anti-aircraft fire, and dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amicities's national animal is the Golden eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is freedom of faith.

Amicities is ranked 150,447^th in the world and 858^th in Europe for Most Politically Free, scoring 37.33 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
