The Sun King of New Metropolitan France is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Sun King Frank with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 24.141 billion Federalists enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. The average income tax rate is 75.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Federalist economy, worth a remarkable 5,156 trillion Bancors a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 213,597 Bancors, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Paranoid museum guards keep a lookout for any animated displays attempting to escape the premises after dark, to say that military robots are inclined towards violence is offensive, therapists can always squeeze in another house-call, and the dish 'poisson avec poison' is only available on the black market. Crime is totally unknown. New Metropolitan France's national animal is the Jellyfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

New Metropolitan France is ranked 296,954^th in the world and 1,716^th in the Outback for Fattest Citizens, with 5.05 Obesity Rate.
