The Empire of Seiro is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Empress Lunar Calcifet with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, enslaved workforce, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 3.222 billion Seironese are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shiro. The average income tax rate is 73.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Seironese economy, worth 490 trillion yen a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 152,109 yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway, metal detectors have been banned after a bottle cap caused a riot at the beach, Tom and Jerry cartoons have cat and mouse resolving their problems with reasoned discussion, and Empress Lunar Calcifet is worshipped as a god. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Seiro's national animal is the golden eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Lunarism.

Seiro is ranked 141,161st in the world and 82nd in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Most Stationary, with 201.79846807112 days.
