The Commonwealth of Syscianna is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 485 million Sysciannans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.1%.

The very strong Sysciannan economy, worth 38.1 trillion hanas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Cheese Exports, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 78,502 hanas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 233,413 per year while the poor average 20,699, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

Oil executives can be seen reluctantly cleaning oil-soaked birds, major polluting industries have painted a lot of their machines green to give an impression of caring about the environment, attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams, and the government has adopted a more thrifty attitude to administrating the country's needs. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Syscianna's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Syscianna is ranked 132,372^nd in the world and 192^nd in Sophia for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 2,816.68 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
