The TYPE of Oppressive Sackers is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by LEADER with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, frequent executions, and state-planned economy. The cheerful, devout population of 5.586 billion Oppressive Sackersians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government is effectively ruled by the Department of Spirituality, although Education and Law & Order are also considered important, while Industry and Healthcare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of CAPITAL. The average income tax rate is 43.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Oppressive Sackersian economy, worth 21.7 trillion CURRENCIES a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Retail. Average income is 3,881 CURRENCIES, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

CAPITAL has become the number one destination for urban exploration in Nederland, in court almost every witness is a hostile witness, pharmacists increasingly claim they are morally obligated to take long lunches, and one is likelier to die from puns than scurvy. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oppressive Sackers's national animal is the ANIMAL, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is FAITH.

Oppressive Sackers is ranked 153,430th in the world and 160th in Nederland for Most Patriotic, with 8.7 flags saluted per person per day.
