The Federation of Shivea is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Lord Kemuel with an iron fist, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, aversion to nipples, and smutty television. The compassionate, cynical population of 2.23 billion Shivs 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amazing. The average income tax rate is 32.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Shivean economy, worth 141 trillion lmaos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Basket Weaving, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 63,254 lmaos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Minority children spend hours bussing to schools miles away from home, tourists call Shivean beach towns "the fine coastline", election ballot papers are so long that unused ones are recycled as toilet roll, and women across the country are tying the knot. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Shivea's national animal is the Narci Pegasus, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Jamalist.

Shivea is ranked 79,510^th in the world and 748^th in 10000 Islands for Most Average, scoring 40.41 on the Average Standardized Normality Scale.
