The Blu Holy Rpublic of Fam Cetons is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Yodl with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, rampant corporate plagiarism, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 13.181 billion Fam Ctonsians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yodl City. The average income tax rate is 53.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Fam Cetonsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,771 trillion Gold Coins 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Tourism, Book Publishing, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. 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 134,374 Gold Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians, and the government's new "quiet competence" initiative has supporters and detractors alike reeling in confusion. Crime is well under control. Fam Cetons's national animal is the Zombi, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Fam Cetons is ranked 88,418th in the world and 52nd in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Stationary, with 514.938038495 days.
