OverviewPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Grand Duchy of St Serena is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Grand Duke Serenus VII with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 7.902 billion Serenans enjoy great social freedoms and frequent elections, where the majority of the populace regularly votes to increase its benefits at the expense of various hapless minorities.

The large, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, although Spirituality, Education, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gothenburg-on-Serena. The average income tax rate is 72.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong St Serenan economy, worth 787 trillion Marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 99,602 Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The new Liquor Legitimacy Office is besieged with job applications from people who have experience in "statistical sampling methods", mandatory blunting of cutlery has increased the popularity of soup-based meals, the vow 'til death do us part' is often taken as an invitation to murder, and consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. St Serena's national animal is the Vandalian lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Gothic Orthodox Christianity.

St Serena is ranked 30,508th in the world and 9th in Heiliger Bund for Most Stationary, with 1,331.2180021866 days.
