The Slithereen Guard Commander of Slithice is a mammoth, cultured nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, avowedly heterosexual populace, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 8.933 billion Slithiceans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 33.9%.

The Slithicean economy, worth 455 trillion florins a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,004 florins, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, there's more pink stuff on sale these days, prisoners due for execution often use their final statement to complain about soggy bread rolls, and the government is a proud sponsor of the National Gaming Association. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Slithice's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Slithice is ranked 220,392^nd in the world and 2,651^st in Remembrance for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -3.74 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
