The Free Land of SEC is a small, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 26 million SECians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The tiny, liberal government prioritizes Welfare, although Education and Healthcare are also considered important, while Defense and Environment are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.4%.
The strong SECian economy, worth 1.62 trillion Admission Tickets a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Pizza Delivery, and Information Technology. Average income is 62,449 Admission Tickets, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 209,417 per year while the poor average 13,825, a ratio of 15.1 to 1.
White strait-jackets are the new orange jumpsuits, human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, government statisticians explain census inaccuracies by declaring that "Sith happens", and sofas are perpetually on sales that Must End Soon. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. SEC's national animal is the Mascot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
SEC is ranked 10,882nd in the world and 1st in SECFanatics for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 8,628.74 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
