“Truth and love will win against lies and hate.”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Democratic Republic of Shefino is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Prezident Graham with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.036 billion Shefinoans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shef. The average income tax rate is 61.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Shefinoan economy, worth 459 trillion Crowns a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 151,351 Crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Thieves find battery shops juicier targets than banks, scientific progress marches ever forward with the first ever launch of a cheeseburger into space, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and Prezident Graham's iHouse is so intelligent that it manages its own social media accounts. Crime is totally unknown. Shefino's national animal is the White sabertooth tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Shefino is ranked 8,628^th in the world and 285^th in the South Pacific for Most Secular, with 95.99 Atheism Rate.
