Fries 2

The Kingdom of Fries 2 is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, free-roaming dinosaurs, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.989 billion Fries 2ians 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 juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 28.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Fries 2ian economy, worth 201 trillion Frieses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 101,116 Frieses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

The government has declared that sharing is uncaring, the military is researching proton packs and PK-meters to combat "unseen enemy forces", diplomatic missions typically end with a flurry of childish insults, accusations and phlegm, and black market eau de toilette is made in bathroom labs across the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fries 2's national animal is the Potato, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Fries 2 is ranked 135,691st in the world and 23rd in The Fries for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 2,114.21 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
