The Constitutional Monarchy of Sterkistan is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Emilia Viinanen with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and public floggings. The compassionate population of 17.112 billion Sterks 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vetstuna. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Sterkian economy, worth a remarkable 2,978 trillion Perkas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 174,031 Perkas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The intelligence community is playing 4-D chess with an imaginary spy network, cheese lovers have a case of the bleus, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Vetstuna to enjoy their national art, and organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sterkistan's national animal is the Albutra Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Ostarism.
Sterkistan is ranked 7,689th in the world and 2nd in Coalition of Crown Albatross for Lowest Crime Rates, with 106.38 law-abiding acts per hour.
