The Godless Republic of Fairbur is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Supreme Chancellor Samuel with a fair hand, and renowned for its national health service, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 17.403 billion SJWs enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Samopolis. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Fairburian economy, worth a remarkable 3,614 trillion Djoungoes 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 207,691 Djoungoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Being Supreme Chancellor Samuel has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, the government has adopted a "Lightning Never Strikes Twice" approach to dealing with natural disasters, and the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fairbur's national animal is the Pepe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fairbur is ranked 13,946th in the world and 1st in Regionless for Most Stationary, with 1,860.23688583652 days.
