South Seedac is a post-conflict country that has experienced a succession of dictators, resulting in several decades of fluctuating violence between military, rebel and civilian populations.  Whilst the current regime is nominally democratic (the first elections were held in 2009), many of the previous regimes elite (generals, ministers etc) have been voted into the government, and the military is still a strong presence.  The country also continues to display a degree of control regarding its citizens and the involvement of foreigners, and corruption levels are high.

The geography of South Seedac is such that a large river runs the length of the country, and drains from mountain ranges in the north.  With the changing global climate resulting in greater yearly icemelt, as well as increased intensity of monsoon rains, flooding is becoming more common.  Cyclones are also common around coastal areas at certain times of the year. 

In rural areas there is limited developed infrastructure (roads, bridges, rail), with most transport happening on dirt roads or by boat.  Economically the country is beginning to increase exports of timber and minerals, but these are largely done by international groups and the government sees little of the profits. 

The population is divided between remote rural locations, which are still largely tribal, and expanding urban centres.  The urban centres are seeing a rapid increase in levels of communications infrastructure and usage (mobile, tv) whilst the remote areas still have little infrastructure development.  Mobile telecoms are starting to reach more remote areas, but uptake is slow.  Literacy levels vary hugely between the rural and urban populations, as do indicators around health, education and access to services. 

The population is a mixture of Muslim in the more northern areas, and Christian in the southern (including the capital).  There are many tribal languages, but Dacian is the primary language (based on Roman script), with English becoming much more widely spoken, particularly in the urban centres.
