The Federal Republic of Skeridia is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working population of 8 million Skeridians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 30.1%.
The strong Skeridian economy, worth 413 billion Euro Skeridianoes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 51,721 Euro Skeridianoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Skeridia's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
