The Nebulous Populace of Serinupu is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Grand Leader Arcen Seyzuela II with an iron fist, and renowned for its enslaved workforce, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 10.24 billion Serinupi are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Denyomaso. The average income tax rate is 99.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Serinupin economy, worth a remarkable 3,761 trillion rubins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 367,346 rubins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Children who can't memorize their multiplication tables are sent to the mines, migrating birds in the nation's airspace are considered a violation of national sovereignty, fortified nursing homes are wracked with daily skirmishes, and the relatives of suicide victims tend to be angry rather than sad. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Serinupu's national animal is the Serinupin Uku Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Serinupu is ranked 1,602^nd in the world and 11^th in Psychotic Dictatorships for Largest Black Market, with 4,470 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
