The Empire of Seaforti is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Helmut Schmidt with an iron fist, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, parental licensing program, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.786 billion Seafortians 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 government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Octrion. The average income tax rate is 40.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Seafortian economy, worth 279 trillion Imperial Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 100,225 Imperial Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Many are questioning Helmut Schmidt wearing an Eckie-Ecola baseball cap during a keynote speech, the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, parents are relieved they no longer need to help with their kids' algebra homework, and the government would rather execute a hundred innocent men than let one guilty one appeal a verdict. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Seaforti's national animal is the Raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

Seaforti is ranked 187,834^th in the world and 42^nd in Novus Lucidum for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -9.06 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
