The Socialist Democratic State of Secomandre is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by The Socialist Party with an even hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, state-planned economy, and hatred of cheese. The quiet, industrious population of 4.857 billion Secomandreans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gargalitopolis. The average income tax rate is 75.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Secomandrean economy, worth 182 trillion New Fezzes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Tourism. Average income is 37,385 New Fezzes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The jails are alive with the sound of birdsong, Secomandrean police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, The Socialist Party has just been declared ruler of Secomandre in an international press conference, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Secomandre's national animal is the Chicken, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Secomandre is ranked 67,727^th in the world and 57^th in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 2,632.87 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
