The Rogue Nation of Svartkladd is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Master with an even hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, public floggings, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 15.552 billion Svartkladdians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shangri-La. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Svartkladdian economy, worth a remarkable 3,952 trillion Caps a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 254,147 Caps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

War vets look after war animals, a vast monorail network carries people all over the country, physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques, and a bill to outlaw math homework has been submitted. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Svartkladd's national animal is the Krolik, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Svartkladd is ranked 11,384th in the world and 97th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 2,151.52870635408 days.
