The Nomadic Peoples of Fenwich is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and complete absence of social welfare. The quiet, industrious population of 92 million Fenwichians 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 prioritizes Defense, although Education, Industry, and Law & Order are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 23.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Fenwichian economy, worth 4.95 trillion sticks and leaves a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 53,768 sticks and leaves, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

A popular saying is "a chicken for every pot and an abortion clinic on every street", traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, it is illegal to have the wrong clock time showing on your microwave oven, and you're never too young to learn how to lie with confidence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fenwich's national animal is the muskrat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Fenwich is ranked 224,839^th in the world and 241^st in Conch Kingdom for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -5.59 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
