“In varietate concordia.”

The United Sovereign Nations of Southeastasia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its happy-go-lucky citizens. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 10.138 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Defence, and Social Welfare. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Southeastasia, anti-government web sites are springing up, citizens may cast their vote over the internet or phone, and pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are sold freely by the government. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Southeastasia's national animal is the Dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Qian.

Southeastasia is ranked 1st in the region and 52,053rd in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
