The Republic of Selle is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, digital currency, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 5.33 billion Selleans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Public Transport. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Taravo. The average income tax rate is 8.9%.

The very strong Sellean economy, worth 411 trillion rupees a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 77,228 rupees, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Frat-house partying has become the national pastime, hospitals have poor data security but send lots of bodies to be encrypted, doctors prescribe videos of political debates to patients with insomnia, and shoppers have literally had their hands full since plastic bags were banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Selle's national animal is the beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Selle is ranked 128,613^th in the world and 89^th in Coalition of Crown Albatross for Lowest Crime Rates, with 62.87 law-abiding acts per hour.
