The Protectorate of Sycheckahrmy is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Sairin with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 3.93 billion Sycheckahrmese are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Terra Silvestria. The average income tax rate is 80.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Sycheckahrmese economy, worth 292 trillion Krohns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is 74,301 Krohns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, a child's only Trickster Night scare is the sight of their parents dancing, bin lorries have replaced birds as the source of the dawn chorus, and Occam's razor has sliced to pieces any childhood belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sycheckahrmy's national animal is the Tarantula, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sabaism.

Sycheckahrmy is ranked 12,380^th in the world and 24^th in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,733.4 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
