The Sultanate of Freaking is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 19.488 billion Freakingians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Freakingian economy, worth 209 trillion Freaks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Average income is 10,751 Freaks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Freaking's national animal is the Deaky, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Freaking is ranked 4,882nd in the world and 96th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 3,272.7062388 days.
