The Monarchy of Scherzinger is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Erwin Zenzefer III with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, keen interest in outer space, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 15.749 billion Scherzos are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ShangXiang. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 57.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Scherzingerian economy, worth a remarkable 3,502 trillion Deutsche Yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 222,365 Deutsche Yen, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Elderly tribespeople die in bed surrounded by loved ones and linguists, the government proudly leads the world in environmental regulators per capita, the poorest Scherzos live in 'the stacks', and first-time jaywalkers are also last-time jaywalkers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scherzinger's national animal is the Koi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Atheism.

Scherzinger is ranked 21,957th in the world and 7th in Mitteleuropa for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 7,842.28 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
