The Federal Peoples Commonwealth of Ferrumia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Premier Christian Williams with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate population of 3.767 billion Ferrumians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sabaton City. The average income tax rate is 65.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Ferrumian economy, worth 372 trillion Crimsons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 98,833 Crimsons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, billions of Crimsons are spent to take high-quality photos of the Proletariat Eagle Nebula, politicians tend to jump ship to whichever party is currently leading in the polls, and flight attendants rip down curtains with revolutionary fervor. Crime is totally unknown. Ferrumia's national animal is the Proletariat Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Communist Jesus.

Ferrumia is ranked 9,738^th in the world and 358^th in The Communist Bloc for Nicest Citizens, with 33.86 average smiles per day.
