The White Hat Hacker of Feria-Alkaline is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Felicia Light with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, national health service, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 15.28 billion Ferian-Alkalineans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Transitor. The average income tax rate is 27.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ferian-Alkalinean economy, worth a remarkable 3,599 trillion Ferian ribas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 235,598 Ferian ribas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A surprising number of travelers carry their water in vodka bottles, the military has gone fission for more funding, dancing with your first cousin is a misdemeanor, and scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Feria-Alkaline's national animal is the fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Universal Timeslots.

Feria-Alkaline is ranked 67,511^th in the world and 235^th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,508.67 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
