The Great Empire of Serseistaninchordia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Gaius with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 2.81 billion Serseistaninchordians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fennmont. The average income tax rate is 74.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Serseistaninchordian economy, worth 407 trillion Reichsmarks a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,121 Reichsmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, the nation has been sent to bed early for unspecified naughtiness, armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough, and white strait-jackets are the new orange jumpsuits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Serseistaninchordia's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Serseistaninchordia is ranked 22,735^th in the world and 343^rd in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 260.42 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
