The Theocracy of FrankieMania is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Frankie with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, triple-decker prams, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.724 billion FrankieManians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Spirituality, and Industry also on the agenda, while Environment is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of FrankieMenia. The average income tax rate is 92.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient FrankieManian economy, worth 391 trillion Golds a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 143,588 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Water fights now end with thousands dead, immigrants are required to salute the flag five times a day, cleaners are very careful not to bump into the big red button on Frankie's desk, and police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. FrankieMania's national animal is the Sheep, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

FrankieMania is ranked 8,154th in the world and 148th in The East Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 68.33 flags saluted per person per day.
