The Dominion of Secessionance is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 12.726 billion Secessionanceans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Secessionancean economy, worth a remarkable 1,169 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 91,914 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Political scientists despair as the national mascot election eclipses all others in voter enthusiasm, park rangers struggle to deal with a rash of stolen pic-a-nic baskets, the general public only knows their favorite politician's first name, and dog owners proudly declare that their pups can predict when the mailman will arrive. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Secessionance's national animal is the porcupine, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Secessionance is ranked 17,397th in the world and 989th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 96 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
