The Jingoistic States of Seculara is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, smutty television, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 536 million Atheists 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, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fallen Frisco. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 70.7%.

The powerhouse Secular economy, worth 67.2 trillion Sigils a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 125,308 Sigils, with the richest citizens earning 7.6 times as much as the poorest.

Hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, the government has instituted 'traveller reservations' across the country, all gamers have been drafted into the military despite their lack of upper body strength, and foreign leaders' Twitcher accounts are monitored for potential threats to national security. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Seculara's national animal is the Pterodactyl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Seculara is ranked 46,372nd in the world and 31st in Fallen Nations for Most Cultured, scoring 73 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
