The Armed Republic of The Federal Terran Sovereignty is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, aversion to nipples, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 16.161 billion Federal Terran Sovereigntyians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 83.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Federal Terran Sovereigntyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,681 trillion Terran Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 104,019 Terran Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The comic book series 'Leader and the Villainous Corporate Cronies' is a best-seller, this summer's chart-toppers sound almost the same as last year's, sharks are enjoying their deliveries of canned food, and the government is in utter turmoil following the recent abolishment of the tax code. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Federal Terran Sovereignty's national animal is the Phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Federal Terran Sovereignty is ranked 26,209^th in the world and 947^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 85.11 law-abiding acts per hour.
