The State of The Far South is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, democratic population of 27.197 billion Far Southians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Social Policy, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.6%.

The very strong Far Southian economy, worth a remarkable 1,124 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 41,343 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 133,616 per year while the poor average 9,667, a ratio of 13.8 to 1.

The government is avowedly atheist, the tenet of free speech is held dear, all tariffs have been abolished, and military funding has been stripped back. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Far South's national animal is the deer.

The Far South is ranked 88,705th in the world and 3rd in Kyiv for Highest Food Quality, scoring 25.27 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
