The National Capitalist Empire of Svenskskit is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Johann Kaspar Schmidt with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.343 billion Svenskjävlar are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stockholm. The average income tax rate is 80.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Svenskjävlig economy, worth a remarkable 1,053 trillion kronor a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 242,501 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

The military has forsaken terrestrial warfare, the practice of capital punishment proves divisive, billions of kronor are being blown on orbital weapons development, and promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Svenskskit's national animal is the phantasm, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Transhumanist Ego Theocratic Imperialism.

Svenskskit is ranked 13,255^th in the world and 706^th in The North Pacific for Smartest Citizens, with 79.56 quips per hour.
