The Federation of Ferganistan is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 570 million Ferganistanis love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chupain - Moako. The average income tax rate is 46.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Ferganistanian economy, worth 29.3 trillion Fergani Yugtoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 51,362 Fergani Yugtoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor, it is rumoured that Leader uses a magic 8-ball to make policy decisions, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, and incarcerated crime lords manage their empires from massage tables. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ferganistan's national animal is the Bear.

Ferganistan is ranked 56,404^th in the world and 804^th in The Communist Bloc for Lowest Crime Rates, with 72.68 law-abiding acts per hour.
