The Empire of Sciency Advancement is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Keftan with an even hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, national health service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 16.486 billion Sciency Advances enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Scientific Progress. The average income tax rate is 93.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sciency economy, worth a remarkable 4,905 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 297,538 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sciency Advancement has been recently classified as an international menace after 'liberating' several nearby territories, military equipment is being auctioned off to extend comatose centenarians' lives, advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines, and cricket farmers use magnifying glasses to fit every member of their herd with tiny tracking tags. Crime is totally unknown. Sciency Advancement's national animal is the Dogoo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sciency Advancement is ranked 1,646th in the world and 60th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 294 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
