The State of Sethura is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 13.356 billion Sethurans enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.
The minute, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.
The strong Sethuran economy, worth 630 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 47,200 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 304,211 per year while the poor average 2,958, a ratio of 102 to 1.
It is illegal to make racist remarks in public, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, military funding has been stripped back, and mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest growing field. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Sethura's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Sethura is ranked 286,392nd in the world and 581st in United States of America for Lowest Crime Rates, with 37.59 law-abiding acts per hour.
