The Federation of SIFB FEDERATION is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by KAIQUE with a fair hand, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 790 million SIFB FEDERATIONians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City of a thousand hopes. The average income tax rate is 69.0%.

The frighteningly efficient SIFB FEDERATIONian economy, worth 88.7 trillion Reais a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 112,308 Reais, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Soldiers' positions are given away by the glint of their bayonets, money can't buy happiness but it can buy immunity to prosecution, government officials go door-to-door educating about the dangers of pseudoscience, and bands of paramedics walk the streets looking for suspicious medical activity. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SIFB FEDERATION's national animal is the Great Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

SIFB FEDERATION is ranked 31,519^th in the world and 776^th in the South Pacific for Most Efficient Economies, scoring 96.94 on the Krugman-Greenspan Business Outlook Index.
