The Khemrikhara of Settra is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Settra The Imperishable with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working population of 5.271 billion Settrans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Khemri. The average income tax rate is 28.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Settran economy, worth 304 trillion gold coins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Basket Weaving, and Retail. Average income is 57,692 gold coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The new national mascot has to be wheeled onto the field of play, political candidates who don't release their birth certificates are presumed to have been born in Maxtopia, Settra The Imperishable tells rebellious ministers to "drop and give me twenty", and a cyber-war between file sharers and the music industry formats hard drives across the country. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Settra's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Nehekharan Pantheon.

Settra is ranked 126,698^th in the world and 1^st in Khemri for Lowest Crime Rates, with 63.44 law-abiding acts per hour.
