The Republic of Skenisel is a mid-sized, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning Aist Woodpecker population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 67 million Skenlics 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 prioritizes Administration, with Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.2%.

The Skenlic economy, worth 3.71 trillion Seazzes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 55,384 Seazzes, with the richest citizens earning 7.2 times as much as the poorest.

Skenisel's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, the government is deliberately installing bloatware onto computers, Skenlics suffer not the eggplant emoji to live, and a byzantine web of conspiracies and secret alliances must be navigated any time legislation is voted upon. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Skenisel's national animal is the Aist Woodpecker, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Skenisel is ranked 79,795^th in the world and 701^st in the Pacific for Smartest Citizens, with 38.73 quips per hour.
