The Glorious Empire of The Scandinvans is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 34.857 billion Scandinvans 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, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valdra. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Scandinvansian economy, worth an astonishing 14,032 trillion Darvians a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 402,568 Darvians, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,754,747 per year while the poor average 3,823, a ratio of 982 to 1.

The national sporting identity is represented by a talking burger and a singing smartphone, the workforce is almost entirely made up of slave labour, Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed, and pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil. Crime is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Scandinvans's national animal is the Artic Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The Scandinvans is ranked 209,871^st in the world and 31^st in Gholgoth for Highest Poor Incomes, with 3,823.69 Standard Monetary Units.
