The Department of Seine-Maritime is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Pascal Martin with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 20.175 billion Seinomarins are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rouen. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.7%.

The strong Seinomarin economy, worth a remarkable 1,579 trillion francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,270 francs, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

The newest shade developed by Seine-Maritime's dye industry has been dubbed 'Agent Orange', signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles, one tree's worth of paperwork accompanies each imported log of timber, and oil executives can be seen reluctantly cleaning oil-soaked birds. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Seine-Maritime's national animal is the lion and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Seine-Maritime is ranked 139,640^th in the world and 37^th in Department Store for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 2,151.18 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
