The Imperial Federation of Seyrus is a massive, safe nation, ruled by sanctus imperator with an even hand, and notable for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 1.683 billion Seyrusians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Exodus City. The average income tax rate is 72.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Seyrusian economy, worth 116 trillion Seyrusian Francs a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,131 Seyrusian Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, people are bored of easy crossword puzzles, Uminarism has been named as Seyrus's national religion, and the nation is famous for bravely sending wave after wave of its soldiers until the enemy runs out of bullets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Seyrus's national animal is the Eagle and its national religion is Uminarism.

Seyrus is ranked 83,483^rd in the world and 1,481^st in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 95.92 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
