The Republic of Frimon is a colossal, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service, national health service, and pith helmet sales. The democratic, devout population of 8.942 billion Frimonians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 33.6%.

The large but underdeveloped Frimonian economy, worth 252 trillion francs 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 Gambling, Pizza Delivery, Trout Farming, and Tourism. 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 28,182 francs, with the richest citizens earning 5.9 times as much as the poorest.

Only AIs know why the nation is rapidly increasing its semiconductor stockpile, the government is pouring funds into the nation's welfare system, businesses that prove successful are immediately broken up, and Maxtopian Grass flags adorn every college dorm room. Crime is relatively low. Frimon's national animal is the unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Frimon is ranked 268,984^th in the world and 12^th in Taiwan for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -8.39 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
