The Holy Hand Grenade of Sizzletown is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 12.189 billion Sizzletownians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Koharuhaniwa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.9%.

The powerhouse Sizzletownian economy, worth a remarkable 1,093 trillion Azzle Roubleses a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 89,744 Azzle Roubleses, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.

The government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, everyone has the equal opportunity to have their wallet stolen, anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card, and postmen have been arrested in job lots for selling junk mail as home insulation. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Sizzletown's national animal is the Zikian Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Sizzletown is ranked 148,863^rd in the world and 3,754^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,251.17 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
