The Democratic Monarchy of Seristria is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Luke Francis Lehner of Hanover with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 12.804 billion Seristrians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hanover. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 72.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Seristrian economy, worth a remarkable 1,928 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 150,634 Euros, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 581,391 per year while the poor average 26,812, a ratio of 21.7 to 1.

Government fact-checkers use surprising amounts of high explosive, consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, Luke Francis Lehner of Hanover steals from the rich and gives to the needy, and students consistently complain that the wi-fi ate their homework. Crime is almost non-existent. Seristria's national animal is the Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Seristria is ranked 9,835^th in the world and 208^th in Europe for Highest Food Quality, scoring 161.86 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
