The Republic of Selki is a small, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy. The democratic population of 32 million Selkians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 31.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The developing Selkian economy, worth 940 billion pesos 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 black market in Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Retail. 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 29,383 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Selki's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Selki is ranked 21,466^th in the world and 9^th in Imperatus for Least Corrupt Governments, with 94.17 percentage of bribes refused.
