The Forested Roads of French Name 0 is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Mario Einstroff with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, public floggings, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 7.283 billion Name 0ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yorkland. The average income tax rate is 22.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Name 0ian economy, worth 501 trillion TBAS a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,911 TBAS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Soldiers stream their classified military operations live for millions of fans, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, thousands of children die every day from easily curable illnesses, and the navy's new flotilla is gonna be a thrilla. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. French Name 0's national animal is the TBA, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Name 0ism.

French Name 0 is ranked 67,112^th in the world and 2^nd in Name 0 for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 142.74 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
