The Confederacy of Saukania is a huge, safe nation, notable for its unlimited-speed roads, hatred of cheese, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 577 million Sauka are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 56.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but underdeveloped Sauka economy, worth 18.1 trillion karals 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 dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. Average income is 31,421 karals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Councils up and down the country wrangle over legal matters, Saukania successfully hosted the Anteria Olympics, there's a shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt, and access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saukania's national animal is the Laxad lion.
Saukania is ranked 271,314th in the world and 149th in Anteria for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -10 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
