The Free Kingdom of Falcania is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Queen Falcon IV with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, free-roaming dinosaurs, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 46.941 billion Falcanians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of High Roost. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Falcon's economy, worth an astonishing 12,943 trillion decimalised Talons a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 275,729 decimalised Talons, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 974,278 per year while the poor average 56,395, a ratio of 17.3 to 1.

The Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on Falcania, advanced mathematics books explain how two plus two equals five, scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays, and even immigrants complain that immigrants keep taking their jobs. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Falcania's national animal is the Falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Falcania is ranked 976^th in the world and 1^st in Arrosia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 19,474.85 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
