The Imperial Directorate of Slekomania is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Director Dr Lev Waltari with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, deadly medical pandemics, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 20.416 billion Slekomanians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Industry is also considered important, while Environment and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Citadel. The average income tax rate is 4.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Slekomanian economy, worth a remarkable 8,394 trillion Digital sleks 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. 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 amazing 411,168 Digital sleks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Officer recruitment and police brutality have reached an all-time high, the nation's new Mylab space station is notorious for being the loneliest place above the planet, minefields are being deployed along the border to discourage potential emigrants from trying to leave, and hairdressers are among those who have disappeared overnight. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Slekomania's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is absolute submission to the state.

Slekomania is ranked 289,645th in the world and 11,315th in Lazarus for Safest, scoring 3.61 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
