The Shadowy Empire of Farengeto is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by AI TekNet with an even hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, rampant corporate plagiarism, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, humorless population of 15.371 billion Farengeto are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Farengeto City. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Farengeto economy, worth a remarkable 2,659 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. Average income is an impressive 172,994 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, gossip magazines have pictures of AI TekNet sunbathing on the beach with political rivals, Propaganda and Partisanship 101 is a required class all political candidates must pass before being nominated by their chosen party, and funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Farengeto's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Farengeto is ranked 1,381^st in the world and 50^th in the South Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 98.03 on the Human Development Index.
