The Dominion of Sassanian Empire is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 7.652 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Commerce and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Cheese Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration industries.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sassanian Empire's national animal is the griffin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the rial.

Sassanian Empire is ranked 36th in Greece and 85,504th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -19 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
