The Kingdom of The Scandinavian Realm is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Carl Philip Bernadotte with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.344 billion Scandinavians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gothenburg. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Scandinavian economy, worth a remarkable 4,228 trillion Scandinavian Crowns a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 452,580 Scandinavian Crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Jack Russells have proven to be terrible spies, the nation's most "productive" diamond mine hasn't been operational for seven months, the nation's new Mylab space station is notorious for being the loneliest place above the planet, and heated town halls quickly descend into shootouts between politicians and their constituents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Scandinavian Realm's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Scandinavian Realm is ranked 14,914^th in the world and 293^rd in Europe for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,241.04 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
