The Borderlands of Sequojeda is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 1.523 billion love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, the Environment, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 59%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Guns are banned, Sequojeda's educational system is the envy of many and regarded as a pinnacle of educational achievement, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, and drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is a problem, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Sequojeda's national animal is the beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the orbis.

Sequojeda is ranked 567th in the region and 44,079th in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
