The Torporine Kingdom of Finium is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by King Esmereldo Esteban Spessartine with an iron fist, and notable for its triple-decker prams, enslaved workforce, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 29.194 billion Finians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Angpern. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Finite economy, worth a remarkable 7,456 trillion Ingots a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 255,395 Ingots, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,525,533 per year while the poor average 19,482, a ratio of 78.3 to 1.
It is illegal to brush crumbs off your clothing outdoors, people are always able to look each other in the eye, the government is more interested in identifying problems than fixing them, and you can be fired for dyeing grey hairs.

Finium's national animal is the Fae, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Ditanery.
