The People's Republic of Sevid is a mid-sized, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 90 million Sevidians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 73.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Sevidian economy, worth 1.08 trillion Ndias a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is 12,035 Ndias, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bigtopian relations have become a minefield, the threat of economic apocalypse brings out the best in people, droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, and the wearing and manufacture of fur apparel is banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sevid's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Sevid is ranked 125,742^nd in the world and 1,009^th in the West Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 586.66 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
