The The Breaking Dawn of Sun Up is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 14.76 billion Sun Upians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Sun Upian economy, worth 981 trillion yellow circles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, highly specialized black market in Trout Farming, Retail, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 66,523 yellow circles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Calling shotgun on the front seat too many days in a row is seen as a crime against social equality, the Party has more splits than a yo-yo dieter's trousers, children are regularly married to each other to secure alliances between families, and the price of freedom is about half a million yellow circles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sun Up's national animal is the early bird, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Sun Up is ranked 280,799^th in the world and 8,585^th in Suspicious for Highest Food Quality, scoring 5.81 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
