The Republic of Scivonia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Frederick Meisz with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 17.557 billion Scivonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Welfare, and Environment are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Borea Kraslava. The average income tax rate is 52.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Scivonian economy, worth a remarkable 3,631 trillion Re'als a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 206,855 Re'als, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Authorities are looking for a stool pigeon to rat out who is stealing food from pigeon toilets, prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, artists from across the nation compete to renovate the restrooms of old government buildings, and Information Technology facilities are being turned into Black Edged Eagle habitats. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Scivonia's national animal is the Black Edged Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Scivonia is ranked 2,944^th in the world and 55^th in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 704.28 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
