The Republic of Serkovy is a very large, cultured nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 449 million Serkovians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karavec. The average income tax rate is 71.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Serkovic economy, worth 34.6 trillion Dinars a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,030 Dinars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, only 'organics' are permitted to be citizens, and many aides in Leader's office are known to be serial jaywalkers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Serkovy's national animal is the Serkovic Warmblood, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Serkovy is ranked 184,412^th in the world and 2,506^th in The North Pacific for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,590.9 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
