The Commonwealth of Federated Commonwealth of Selstville is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Sir Road Runner with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 8.533 billion Selestvieans 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beaufort. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Selestviean economy, worth a remarkable 1,316 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 154,284 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Government bureaucrats review designs for birdhouses to ensure they do not block the views of neighbors, children are often observed making 'sand angels' in bunkers, space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, and the new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Federated Commonwealth of Selstville's national animal is the Kangaroo and Brown Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Federated Commonwealth of Selstville is ranked 9,448th in the world and 25th in The Western Isles for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 11,485.55 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
