The Republic of S4e87 is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, prohibition of alcohol, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, cynical population of 519 million S4e87ians 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, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 66.2%.

The strong S4e87ian economy, worth 42.0 trillion złoties 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 slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. 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 80,966 złoties, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Only fully-fledged members of MENSA are allowed to vote, the government has ordered a moratorium on referenda, nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, and all beauty contests have been banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. S4e87's national animal is the monkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

S4e87 is ranked 83,370th in the world and 1,002nd in the South Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,169.57 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
