The Sitting Duck of The Scandinavian Unions is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 15.926 billion Scandinavians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Copenhagen. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Scandinavian economy, worth a remarkable 2,469 trillion Kroner a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is an impressive 155,071 Kroner, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 863,082 per year while the poor average 13,938, a ratio of 61.9 to 1.

A recent political debate came to a quick close once the ruling party decreed it was "just plain silly", people with political aspirations study how to make balloon animals, it is common to still see adults with training wheels on their bikes, and the government loves seeing the little people fight. Crime is totally unknown. The Scandinavian Unions's national animal is the Puma, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

The Scandinavian Unions is ranked 75,892^nd in the world and 1^st in Mithra for Lowest Crime Rates, with 69.16 law-abiding acts per hour.
