The Borderlands of Northern Forelands is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 415 million Northern Forelandsians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Welfare, Healthcare, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Environment isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Forelands Fort. The average income tax rate is 26.7%.

The Northern Forelandsian economy, worth 19.4 trillion Dollars a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 46,662 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

A dictator has seized power and outlawed elections, women who leak pus from infected wounds are told to suck it up, inheritance tax has recently been abolished, and the government is often referred to as "the biggest drug dealer in the nation". Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern Forelands's national animal is the Holy Cow, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Northern Forelands is ranked 211,095^th in the world and 22^nd in The Boykissing Furry Fembois for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
