The Armed Republic of Svanland is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mikael Svan with an iron fist, and renowned for its daily referendums, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 16.102 billion Svanlandians 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 government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Svancity. The average income tax rate is 93.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Svanlandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,772 trillion Pissetassars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 172,196 Pissetassars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has always been at war with Bigtopia, relationships often break down when doctors tell couples they are genetically incompatible, private pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are given away freely by the government, and major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Svanland's national animal is the Kakstare, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Svanland is ranked 7,460th in the world and 115th in the West Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 136 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
