The Sandrider of Fedaykin 14 is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, ritual sacrifices, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 6.559 billion Fedaykin 14ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 70.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Fedaykin 14ian economy, worth 545 trillion Melange Units a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 83,120 Melange Units, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.
Prisons are filled with the cackles and sobs of a deranged inmate population, advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references, nobody likes bad boys any more, and cold medicines curiously become cheaper when government officials sneeze. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fedaykin 14's national animal is the Maker, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
