The Free Land of Frogstar is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its national health service, daily referendums, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.944 billion Frogstarians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Begemot City. The average income tax rate is 61.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Frogstarian economy, worth 680 trillion crowns a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,472 crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, wind farms are erected on shuttered oil platforms, and popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs. Crime is totally unknown. Frogstar's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Frogstar is ranked 279,178th in the world and 10,578th in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -10.86 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
