The People's Republic of Sechtricidad is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Barbara Wallenberg with a fair hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.459 billion Sechtricidadians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rafmagdyn. The average income tax rate is 55.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Sechtricidadian economy, worth 131 trillion sezons a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 89,944 sezons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Posters of politicians in sensual poses can be found on the walls of teenagers' rooms, policy reversals are more often graceful demi-détournés than u-turns, large sections of Sechtricidad have been named national reserves to protect the native tribes living there, and political speeches always take place at sunset to a background of patriotic power ballads. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sechtricidad's national animal is the red-feathered peacock, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Celectrodism.

Sechtricidad is ranked 229,701^st in the world and 122^nd in The Free Nations Region for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides, with 1.93 Rich To Poor Income Ratio.
