The Federal Republic of Felbradas is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The Federal Council with a fair hand, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.425 billion Felbradasians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Broadwater. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 28.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Felbradasian economy, worth 204 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 143,485 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Oil rigs in winter are heated by contained oil slick fires, voting district maps are said to resemble a tyrannosaurus eating the capital, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', and a death threat has replaced 'hello' as an official greeting in the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Felbradas's national animal is the Otter, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Felbradas is ranked 18,465th in the world and 18th in Aesica for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 322.45 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
