The Empire of Fengate is a behemoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor David I with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 51.223 billion Fengateans 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 prioritizes Environment, with Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fengate City. The average income tax rate is 68.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fengatean economy, worth a remarkable 7,351 trillion fens a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 143,520 fens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction, aspiring pilots must be personally vetted by the Minister of Transportation before receiving their license, giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, and in musicals everybody's a little bit racist. Crime is totally unknown. Fengate's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Fengate is ranked 19,236^th in the world and 564^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 315.76 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
