The In The Flesh of Mr Forever is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 25.047 billion Mr Foreverians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded, outspoken morass — prioritizes Welfare, although Education and Healthcare are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 78.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Mr Foreverian economy, worth 208 trillion Loves a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 8,310 Loves, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, and gambling is outlawed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mr Forever's national animal is the Walrus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Mr Forever is ranked 73,616th in the world and 4th in Freedom and Justice Alliance for Lowest Crime Rates, with 69.52 law-abiding acts per hour.
