The Republic of Scivonia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Frederick Meisz with an even hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, devout population of 18.565 billion Scivonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Borea Kraslava. The average income tax rate is 61.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Scivonian economy, worth a remarkable 3,863 trillion Re'als 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 208,100 Re'als, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Only AIs know why the nation is rapidly increasing its semiconductor stockpile, citizens wishing to leave the country must surrender half their wealth to the government, science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous, and explicit slash fiction is repackaged for kindergarten kids as stories about friends cuddling friends. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Scivonia's national animal is the Black Edged Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Scivonia is ranked 298,764th in the world and 1,345th in Europe for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -10.07 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
