The Constitutional Monarchy of Scia Demeing is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, infamous sell-swords, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 561 million Scia Demeingians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Scia Demeingian economy, worth 60.0 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 106,951 pounds, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 547,578 per year while the poor average 11,469, a ratio of 47.7 to 1.

Children have taken to using semaphore in light of the recent mobile phone ban, homeless people are periodically found dead upon altars to assorted deities, the road to capitalism has proved an epic drama of adventure and exploration, and sections of the police receive paramilitary training. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scia Demeing's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Scia Demeing is ranked 52,254^th in the world and 2^nd in Sacred Archduchy of Greatness for Highest Average Incomes, with 106,951.01 Standard Monetary Units.
