The Ancient Shimmering Wyrm of The Seeker of Power is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by God Emperor Elegarth with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, compulsory military service, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 35.001 billion Huggerists are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Midgard. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Seeker of Powerian economy, worth an astonishing 10,917 trillion Hug Coins a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 311,930 Hug Coins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,597,050 per year while the poor average 33,451, a ratio of 47.7 to 1.
Conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, a few immigrants are better than no immigrants according to God Emperor Elegarth, political candidates recite daily pledges of loyalty to their chosen party, and colonial citizens are forced to sing the praise of the "Great Seeker of Powerian Liberator". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Seeker of Power's national animal is the Hugger Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Atheism.
The Seeker of Power is ranked 49,592nd in the world and 421st in the Pacific for Most Stationary, with 913.10192950328 days.
