The Republic of SCN 1 is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 915 million SCN 1ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 54.4%.

The SCN 1ian economy, worth 41.9 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Furniture Restoration, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 45,771 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

The contraband cigarette trade is lighting up across SCN 1, literally voiceless people are unable to protest when food and water are denied to them, old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, and caroling is considered a public disturbance. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SCN 1's national animal is the unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

SCN 1 is ranked 159,444^th in the world and 13^th in Sanananananananananananananana for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 351.57 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
