The Empire of Sciency Advancement is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Keftan with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 6.015 billion Sciency Advances enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, corrupt, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Scientific Progress. The average income tax rate is 61.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sciency economy, worth a remarkable 1,352 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 224,932 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Keftan's media campaigns take a hiatus around exam week, the government sends submarines to retrieve bodies from shipwrecked submarines, anti-vaxxers are right about the government injecting diseases into people, and jokes told in elementary school often come back to haunt politicians. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Sciency Advancement's national animal is the Dogoo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Sciency Advancement is ranked 55,213^th in the world and 3,021^st in The North Pacific for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 2,081.75 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
