The Gracious Corporate Dominion of East Serentia is a massive, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.024 billion Kanzlians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nieuw Kotr. The average income tax rate is 40.6%.

The Kanzlian economy, worth 51.7 trillion Kanzlian Gelders a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 50,450 Kanzlian Gelders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Children have lost interest in toy guns in favor of toy meth lab kits, family trees become bare as entire branches are lopped off, air purifiers fight smoke machines on Kanzlian stage setups, and citizens tint their front windows to avoid starring in the 'TV Detector Patrol Unit' documentary. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. East Serentia's national animal is the Serentian Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

East Serentia is ranked 138,943^rd in the world and 214^th in Roses Without Thorns for Highest Poor Incomes, with 24,633.75 Standard Monetary Units.
