The Former Nation of Squornshelous is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Emperor Sweyn Petrov I with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 22.089 billion Squornshelans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry and Law & Order are also considered important, while Social Policy and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vogsphere. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Squornshelousian economy, worth a remarkable 5,417 trillion Squornshelan Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 245,245 Squornshelan Credits, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 701,151 per year while the poor average 68,327, a ratio of 10.3 to 1.
Calling tech support mid-shootout is a common occurrence, many are questioning Emperor Sweyn Petrov I wearing an Eckie-Ecola baseball cap during a keynote speech, citizens have to identify all the polar bears in a blizzard photo in order to access their bank account, and city rooftops are pockmarked with the shattered remains of high velocity delivery drones. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Squornshelous's national animal is the Ferret, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Squornshelous is ranked 218,397th in the world and 141st in Atlantian Oceania for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -6 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
