The Constitutional Kingdom of Surksaka is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by John Arthur Wellington with an even hand, and remarkable for its triple-decker prams, avant-garde cinema, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate population of 781 million Nordicans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Healthcare, although Administration, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port Gordon. The average income tax rate is 25.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Surksakan economy, worth 41.1 trillion Nordic Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Gambling, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 52,610 Nordic Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

John Arthur Wellington has just been declared ruler of Surksaka in an international press conference, power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky, you need a signed affidavit from a registered psychiatrist to claim that you have crazy low prices, and the revelation that people were sexist in the past is apparently front page news. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Surksaka's national animal is the Springbok, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Surksaka is ranked 30,790^th in the world and 1^st in The Nordic Pact for Most Valuable International Artwork, with 5.59 Bank.
