The Empire of Great Scapula is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Dher with an even hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, free-roaming dinosaurs, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate population of 17.07 billion Great Scapulans 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vikaland. The average income tax rate is 97.6%.

The frighteningly efficient a Great Scapulan economy, worth a remarkable 2,609 trillion golds a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 152,855 golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Constipated disaster survivors are rapidly learning that MRE is short for "Meal Requiring Enemas", the government asks not what you can do for your country but what you can do to tidy their country homes, the Counter-Terrorism Unit has been nicknamed "Big Bad Wolf" for its tendency towards urban demolition, and the government maintains a Department of Skulduggery. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Great Scapula's national animal is the white deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the cult to Vika.

Great Scapula is ranked 265,929^th in the world and 12,449^th in the South Pacific for Highest Crime Rates, with 1.52 crimes per hour.
