The Peaceful Garden Utopia of Faundia is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Peacekeeper Fionne Peryton with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.771 billion Faundians 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 enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Verdance. The average income tax rate is 75.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Faundian economy, worth 477 trillion dollars 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 mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 48,849 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government keeps introducing new foreign species to combat the previous ones it has introduced, legislation sometimes has to battle through weeks of filibustering to pass, prison visits increase substantially during election years, and giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Peacekeeper Fionne Peryton is a silly poophead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Faundia's national animal is the Faundian Elk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Faundia is ranked 18,815th in the world and 1,098th in Osiris for Safest, scoring 114.57 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
