The Shadow-Frost Confederation of Skaidirolf is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 877 million Skaida enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Evernox. The average income tax rate is 9.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Skaidirolfian economy, worth 47.9 trillion ruvdnas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Trout Farming, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 54,621 ruvdnas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The 'sing-a-long with Leader' album is a popular souvenir, at least 4 unique companies in Skaidirolf claim to sell Eckie-Cola, passengers often cause a stink on public transport, and the inside lane of every highway is for parked vehicles only. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Skaidirolf's national animal is the Arctic Reindeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Skaidirolf is ranked 138,145^th in the world and 320^th in Carcassonne for Smartest Citizens, with 31.34 quips per hour.
