The Allied States of Scorandia is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its public floggings, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-working, democratic population of 536 million Scorandians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 12.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Scorandian economy, worth 29.6 trillion scorands a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 55,286 scorands, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The "give and take" of international diplomacy often happens at gunpoint, the nation is completely gun-free, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, and the right to free speech is being drastically curtailed. Crime is well under control. Scorandia's national animal is the dragon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Scorandia is ranked 248,622^nd in the world and 6,123^rd in the Rejected Realms for Most Patriotic, with 2.56 flags saluted per person per day.
