The Protectorate of Schuld is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 6.859 billion Schuldians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, although Welfare, Healthcare, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.8%.

The strong Schuldian economy, worth 222 trillion guilders a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 32,435 guilders, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 209,047 per year while the poor average 2,033, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Schuld's national animal is the dove, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Schuld is ranked 247,911th in the world and 2nd in Togetsu for Most Developed, scoring 51.18 on the Human Development Index.
