The Armed Republic of SiLEnCe SHadoW is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, zero percent divorce rate, and frequent executions. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.836 billion SiLEnCe SHadoWians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Administration, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Environment isn't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 48.4%.

The all-consuming SiLEnCe SHadoWian economy, worth 164 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 89,794 bitcoins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 376,923 per year while the poor average 13,904, a ratio of 27.1 to 1.

Nobody likes bad boys any more, child labor has been outlawed, 50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool, and flatulent people are left to die of cancer at the end of hospital waiting lists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SiLEnCe SHadoW's national animal is the crow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

SiLEnCe SHadoW is ranked 32,568^th in the world and 1,701^st in Balder for Safest, scoring 108.27 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
