The Federal Republic of Shenendoah is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by President Jay Rockefeller with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, devout population of 6.854 billion Shenendohans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shiloh. The average income tax rate is 40.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Shenendohan economy, worth 834 trillion Tarkin Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 121,729 Tarkin Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Troop transports blacken the sky as the military commences Operation Desert Ocean, teenage male videogamers often suffer repetitive strain wrist injuries, money can't buy you love but you can purchase a reasonable approximation of it, and newspapers are running a front-page picture of President Jay Rockefeller holding a crowbar and standing over a bloodied stockbroker. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Shenendoah's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Shenendoah is ranked 41,820^th in the world and 7^th in Tarkin for Highest Poor Incomes, with 62,177.1 Standard Monetary Units.
