The Jingoistic States of Seculara is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, complete lack of prisons, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 576 million Atheists 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fallen Frisco. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 71.8%.

The powerhouse Secular economy, worth 74.0 trillion Sigils a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 128,387 Sigils, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are now allowed to discuss whether Leader is the greatest ruler ever or simply the greatest ruler of this generation, the amount welfare recipients spend on fertilizer has exploded, executions often take hours as amateurs attempt to find veins, and psychiatrists bizarrely accompany Leader to meetings with foreign heads of state. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Seculara's national animal is the Pterodactyl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Seculara is ranked 268,992nd in the world and 16th in Fallen Nations for Largest Populations, with 576 million capita.
