The Mafia Dictatorship of For Sque is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Thunder with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and national health service. The hard-working, cynical population of 8.85 billion Squeans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.4%.

The frighteningly efficient For Squean economy, worth a remarkable 1,037 trillion Sques a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 117,219 Sques, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 521,495 per year while the poor average 16,401, a ratio of 31.8 to 1.

Bread-gangs raid restaurant waste bins to stockpile uneaten rolls, shoppers have literally had their hands full since plastic bags were banned, all the playground's a stage for For Squean schoolchildren, and people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. For Sque's national animal is the hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

For Sque is ranked 303,946th in the world and 222nd in Forest for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -14.66 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
