The Imperial State of Segenipe is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Emperor Phanm Pingkian with an even hand, and remarkable for its avant-garde cinema, digital currency, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.611 billion Segeneses 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 Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ohngid. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 59.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Segenese economy, worth 388 trillion Rinis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 148,942 Rinis, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 440,247 per year while the poor average 39,602, a ratio of 11.1 to 1.

Emperor Phanm Pingkian has killer fashion sense, there have been sightings of people walking around dressed in nothing but leopard-skin g-strings for 'religious reasons', immigrants who don't like the taste of Segenese Turnip Chips are immediately deported, and scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied Kai Vulture. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Segenipe's national animal is the Kai Vulture, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Kyrtism.

Segenipe is ranked 47,941^st in the world and 153^rd in Europeia for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 4,717.33 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
