The Kingdom of Sjkeji is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Carlino Vinturi with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 12.34 billion Sjkejians are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Siobod. The average income tax rate is 90.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Sjkejian economy, worth a remarkable 1,309 trillion Sujukes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 106,092 Sujukes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Parents who reward their teens' chores with concert tickets are charged with illegal reselling, things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, people often get liposuction to reduce their air fares, and the nation has nearly as many history museums as Sjkejians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sjkeji's national animal is the Puffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Sjkeji is ranked 247,756th in the world and 29th in Red Wolf Alliance for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -6.13 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
