The Colony of Svit-Kona is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, avowedly heterosexual populace, and prohibition of alcohol. The devout population of 27.394 billion Svit-Konans 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 Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 22.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Svit-Konan economy, worth a remarkable 1,282 trillion coronas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 46,833 coronas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild, builders spend more time negotiating "tasteful architecture" than on actual construction, warning signs caution Svit-Konans where they may fall off 'the edge of the world', and doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Svit-Kona's national animal is the tunneler, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Svit-Kona is ranked 85,752nd in the world and 2nd in Land for Highest Poor Incomes, with 35,519.63 Standard Monetary Units.
