The Kingdom of Serlanda is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its feral children, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.146 billion Serlandeses enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rome. The average income tax rate is 71.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Serlandese economy, worth 776 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,847 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military recognizes no difference between male and female soldiers, park rangers perform full-body searches on suspected fungus smugglers, wealthy pranksters dump refuse on unsuspecting citizens from up high, and women have a strange proclivity for dressing up as caped weasels. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Serlanda's national animal is the Red Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Serlanda is ranked 144,124th in the world and 5,595th in Lazarus for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 853.61 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
