The Constitutional Monarchy of Fredericsonia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by King Jaime III with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, frequent executions, and keen interest in outer space. The quiet, industrious population of 1.446 billion Fredericsonians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fredericksburg. The average income tax rate is 48.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Fredericsonian economy, worth 120 trillion Guldens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 83,503 Guldens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Constipated disaster survivors are rapidly learning that MRE is short for "Meal Requiring Enemas", tourists need only sign on the dotted line to become citizens, the tax agency is feared more than serial killers and terrorists, and ship captains always order a return to port at the slightest sign of rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fredericsonia's national animal is the Goblok.

Fredericsonia is ranked 109,459^th in the world and 149^th in Edoca for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,506.92 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
