The Free Land of SEC is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Commissioner with a fair hand, and remarkable for its absence of drug laws, suspicion of poets, and spontaneously combusting cars. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 5.092 billion SECians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Welfare, with Education and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Defense and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City of Champions. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.4%.

The very strong SECian economy, worth 323 trillion Admission Tickets a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Pizza Delivery, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 63,490 Admission Tickets, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 182,983 per year while the poor average 17,491, a ratio of 10.5 to 1.

Students who do not recite the national anthem each morning have to drop and give their teacher 50, spoiler warnings are now given out before political speeches, citizens must have a license to operate a computer, and The Commissioner has just been declared ruler of SEC in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. SEC's national animal is the Mascot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is SEC Fanaticism.

SEC is ranked 77,127^th in the world and 2^nd in secfanatics for Smartest Citizens, with 38.94 quips per hour.
