The Kingdom of Svedona is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Donna with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.976 billion Svedonans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holnia. The average income tax rate is 42.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Svedonan economy, worth 209 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 70,408 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Drug lords often avoid prison time by teaching "chemistry" classes to underprivileged youth, all children's clothes come in only cream and off-white to prevent offense, prisoners due for execution often use their final statement to complain about soggy bread rolls, and Svedonans incessantly needle their doctors for relief. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Svedona's national animal is the elk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Svedona is ranked 29,359th in the world and 13th in MJT for Most Cultured, scoring 82 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
