Overview • PeopleGovernmentEconomyTrendAnalysis

The Queendom of Sarotte is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by RB Toretto with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 15.223 billion love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, the Environment, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vetter. The average income tax rate is 99%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The government is notorious for leaving citizens with almost nothing from their inheritance, the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Sarotte after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, jails have become colloquially known as 'vampire houses', and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sarotte's national animal is the tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is the Cult of Personality, and its currency is the vin.

Sarotte is ranked 3,597th in Lazarus and 101,280th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -69 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
