The Kingdom of Salcanceacy is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by King Oliver Formby with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, otherworldly petting zoo, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 13.166 billion Salcanceacians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Industry, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kaapstad. The average income tax rate is 93.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Salcanceacyian economy, worth a remarkable 3,346 trillion Koins a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 254,190 Koins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The backs of 'No Trespassing' signs were made for you and me, ambulances aren't allowed to overtake hearses, it is universally agreed that the first 31 issues are the only ones with humor and charm (Salcanceacy has found 2 easter eggs), and orthopaedics patients often have a bounce in their step. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Salcanceacy's national animal is the White Martial Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Calvinism.

Salcanceacy is ranked 14,448th in the world and 53rd in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Most Patriotic, with 59.46 flags saluted per person per day.
