The Empire of Sehkmetopolis is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Sehkmet with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 11.141 billion Sehkmetians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Subterranean Memphis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.7%.

The very strong Sehkmetopolisian economy, worth 910 trillion Goats a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. Average income is 81,695 Goats, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 260,790 per year while the poor average 19,451, a ratio of 13.4 to 1.

The nation is reliant on the principle of mutually assured destruction to maintain its security, vaccinations are mandatory, all government facilities are built in the subterranean citadel of Subterranean Memphis, and the government is ignoring the latest terrorist atrocities in Subterranean Memphis for fear of causing a fuss. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Sehkmetopolis's national animal is the Lion and its national religion is Leader worship.

Sehkmetopolis is ranked 146,931^st in the world and 2^nd in The Guild for Safest, scoring 61.3 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
