The Absolute Monarchy of Formendia is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Karl XVII with an iron fist, and notable for its parental licensing program, aversion to nipples, and frequent executions. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 7.334 billion Formendians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berghamn. The average income tax rate is 64.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Formendian economy, worth 680 trillion Formediansk Kronor a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 92,798 Formediansk Kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is coughing up funds for lung cancer victims, nothing in life is promised except death and government support, explicit slash fiction is repackaged for kindergarten kids as stories about friends cuddling friends, and citizens living in underground cities have developed a healthy green glow. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Formendia's national animal is the Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Formendia is ranked 183,831^st in the world and 824^th in Europeia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 272.64 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
