The Constitutional Monarchy of Skitonghwa is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its avant-garde cinema, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 2.209 billion Skitonghwans 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 medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.6%.

The thriving Skitonghwan economy, worth 120 trillion powiats a year, is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 54,545 powiats, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 184,919 per year while the poor average 11,879, a ratio of 15.6 to 1.

Drug lords often avoid prison time by teaching "chemistry" classes to underprivileged youth, the face of Leader is a permanent feature of the Skitonghwa City skyline, professional athletes juggle part-time jobs to avoid bankruptcy, and abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Skitonghwa's national animal is the wisent, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Alevism.

Skitonghwa is ranked 296,281st in the world and 20th in Homestead for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -11.79 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
