The State of Frankenstorm is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical population of 20.235 billion Frankenstormians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 74.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Frankenstormian economy, worth 402 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 19,905 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A dictator has seized power and outlawed elections, the government is seen to favor Catholics, gambling is outlawed, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Frankenstorm's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Frankenstorm is ranked 283,897th in the world and 667th in United States of America for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 4,996.37 Standard Monetary Units.
