The Long Forgotten Republic of Friday Freshman is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Amelia Gray with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, free-roaming dinosaurs, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 23.787 billion Freshmen 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 medium-sized government prioritizes Education, with Defense, Healthcare, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Starfall. The average income tax rate is 80.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Freshman economy, worth a remarkable 4,548 trillion Silver Dollars a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 191,201 Silver Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Baby dolls thrown in the trash are a leading cause of panic attacks, fiscal policy hawks decry the sizable "panem et circenses" fund added to the public budget, the examiners who examine examiners are being examined by examiners, and there's a lot of smoke from the nation's "green economy". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Friday Freshman's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Sect of The Many Faced God.

Friday Freshman is ranked 288,226th in the world and 11,091st in Balder for Most Primitive, scoring -542.5 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
