The Empire of FF NATO is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its burgeoning panther population. The hard-working population of 207 million FF NATOians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.7%.

The very strong FF NATOian economy, worth 10.2 trillion marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Tourism, and Information Technology. Average income is 49,387 marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 150,867 per year while the poor average 12,531, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. FF NATO's national animal is the panther, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

FF NATO is ranked 143,267^th in the world and 1^st in Evil NATO for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 979.76 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
