The Confederacy of Syllia is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Robert Nomska with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ritual sacrifices, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 5.579 billion Syllians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of կրոն. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Syllian economy, worth 801 trillion Syllian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 143,670 Syllian Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 592,087 per year while the poor average 22,952, a ratio of 25.8 to 1.

Major cities run on potato batteries, reddish-brown is the new black, gaping tourists take long-distance photos of diseased natives on "indigenous peoples" safari tours, and public ferries only carry enough lifeboats for the first-class passengers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Syllia's national animal is the Valley Dracorex, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Reformed Christianity.

Syllia is ranked 4,031^st in the world and 5^th in Patriam for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 133,469.86 Standard Monetary Units.
