The Republic of Amper sekai is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, daily referendums, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, devout population of 884 million Amper sekaians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 26.3%.

The strong Amper sekaian economy, worth 58.0 trillion guilders a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 65,559 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government airlifts sacrificial lambs, Goldilocks has found a lucrative career as a zoning consultant, billions of guilders are being blown on orbital weapons development, and the government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amper sekai's national animal is the fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Amper sekai is ranked 107,224^th in the world and 29^th in Amperregion for Most Developed, scoring 60.25 on the Human Development Index.
