The Armed Republic of SCT is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its aversion to nipples, digital currency, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 1.184 billion Comradds have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 40.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse SCTian economy, worth 118 trillion Leys a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 100,455 Leys, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's diplomats shake hands with those whose hands are drenched in the blood of innocents, endocrinology is a rapidly growing field of study, cyber-crime and tin-foil hat sales are both increasing at record rates, and SCT has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. SCT's national animal is the Sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

SCT is ranked 34,446^th in the world and 2,056^th in Balder for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 59,871.2 Standard Monetary Units.
