The Sośal Consrvativ Republic of Fourian is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Hjugo MaKorić with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and conspicuous electricity pylons. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 13.776 billion Forrikans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tostović. The average income tax rate is 91.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Forrikan economy, worth a remarkable 1,850 trillion Bludmarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 134,307 Bludmarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, the meaning of life was recently discovered in the patch notes for Version 1.42, burnt-out forty-foot-tall wicker men dot the countryside, and older citizens lament over the loss of law and order. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fourian's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Fourian is ranked 955th in the world and 1st in Empire of Great Britain for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 17,020.94 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
