The Fiefdom of Seasworth is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Esther Warren with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, public floggings, and daily referendums. The compassionate population of 3.208 billion Seasworthians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 55.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Seasworthian economy, worth 164 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,289 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The thought of funding space programs drives Esther Warren crazy, internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, tourists are forbidden to enter Native Seasworthian lands, and rice shortages have risen after paddy fields were drained to combat malaria. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Seasworth's national animal is the raccoon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Seasworth is ranked 296,196^th in the world and 223^rd in Empire of Great Britain for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.49 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
