The Empire of Semper 28 is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its burgeoning Crowned Eagle population. The hard-working population of 4.524 billion Semper 28ians 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, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 19.3%.

The Semper 28ian economy, worth 194 trillion Cadrilants a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,037 Cadrilants, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, surveillance cameras are banned, older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, and calling dibs is an unalienable right. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Semper 28's national animal is the Crowned Eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Semper 28 is ranked 199,861^st in the world and 3,172^nd in Artificial Solar System for Most Patriotic, with 6.78 flags saluted per person per day.
