The Thalassocracy of Seven Seas is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Captain Drake Nemo Sparrow with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.276 billion Mariners hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Portland. The average income tax rate is 91.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Nautical economy, worth 551 trillion Calypsoes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 104,576 Calypsoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Pedal-powered removal vans are a popular Maxxmas gift for the children of separated parents, visitors often mistake the toiletplex at music festivals for the main stage, the education system is being cleansed of all corporate influence, and citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Seven Seas's national animal is the Albatross, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Seven Seas is ranked 256,399th in the world and 8,529th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 16.8497114384 days.
