The Kingdom of Salcanceacy is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by King Oliver Formby with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 11.919 billion Salcanceacians 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, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Industry, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kaapstad. The average income tax rate is 92.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Salcanceacyian economy, worth a remarkable 3,080 trillion Koins a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 258,437 Koins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

There have been reports of people marrying housepets, mall countdown clocks warn that there are only 364 more shopping days until Maxxmas, every school is receiving a brand new eraser, and census workers are having a hard time figuring out who is actually living in Salcanceacy after the ban on emigration was lifted. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Salcanceacy's national animal is the White Martial Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Calvinism.

Salcanceacy is ranked 8,002^nd in the world and 26^th in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 10,436.04 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
