The Republic of Skitospufretijee is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, rampant corporate plagiarism, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 6.877 billion Skitospufretijeeans 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 79.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Skitospufretijeean economy, worth a remarkable 1,087 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 158,152 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.2 times as much as the poorest.
The atmosphere in Skitospufretijeean boardrooms is turning more gay, gay couples have to travel to Brancaland to find a church that will actually let them wed, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, and the pursuit of wanted criminals ends at the entrance of the pay'n'spray garage as police refuse to enter any private property. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Skitospufretijee's national animal is the Python, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Skitospufretijee is ranked 39,319th in the world and 69th in Two for Highest Food Quality, scoring 42.03 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
