The Confederate States of Scandinavian Nations is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Jeremy Clarkson with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, ubiquitous missile silos, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 34.586 billion Scandinavian Gearheads are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, corrupt government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eboladrome. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Scandinavian Gearhead economy, worth an astonishing 12,940 trillion cubic inches a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 374,153 cubic inches, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

People with political aspirations study how to make balloon animals, things are looking up for sentient toilet bowls, the media seems excessively interested in what Jeremy Clarkson is wearing this season, and Calvinball players are lost for days as they wander the vast halls of their new academies. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Scandinavian Nations's national animal is the supercar, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Grand Tour.

Scandinavian Nations is ranked 195,412th in the world and 86th in Greater Dienstad for Most Stationary, with 53.58866014768 days.
