The Kingdom of Sakata Gintoki is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.432 billion Sakata Gintokians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kuso. The average income tax rate is 19.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Sakata Gintokian economy, worth 254 trillion yen a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 57,471 yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Sakata Gintoki has designated Kuso as its capital city, a suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, evenings at university debating societies often end with everyone acknowledging both sides may well be right, and election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes. Crime is totally unknown. Sakata Gintoki's national animal is the sloth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sakata Gintoki is ranked 178,792^nd in the world and 2,866^th in Ambition for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
