The Sublime Fortress of Fragrancia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by the Fragrancians with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, complete lack of prisons, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The compassionate population of 1.776 billion Fragrancians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Fragrant Fortress. The average income tax rate is 68.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fragrancian economy, worth 215 trillion Bauhinia Shards a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,278 Bauhinia Shards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Light entertainment shows are light on actual entertainment, park rangers struggle to deal with a rash of stolen pic-a-nic baskets, all mothers are allowed six months fully-paid maternity leave, and billions are being spent on a new island airport. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fragrancia's national animal is the Midnight ducky, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is D U C K.

Fragrancia is ranked 97,335^th in the world and 2,391^st in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 15.36 flags saluted per person per day.
