The Republic of FRAvision is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, digital currency, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 23.738 billion FRAvisionians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 41.2%.

The all-consuming FRAvisionian economy, worth a remarkable 2,347 trillion Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 98,881 Pounds, with the richest citizens earning 6.2 times as much as the poorest.

The people consider response to rudeness to be an acceptable casus belli, prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park, and pollution is on the rise along with government approvals of fracking projects. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. FRAvision's national animal is the Chin-Chilla, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

FRAvision is ranked 44,616th in the world and 1st in The Founderless Regions Alliance for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 162.79 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
