The Republic of S4e87 is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, disturbing lack of elderly people, and ritual sacrifices. The compassionate, cynical population of 560 million S4e87ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 66.7%.

The very strong S4e87ian economy, worth 44.0 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 78,617 złoties, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Ill and injured visitors in S4e87 have to walk it off until they return home, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, the government is paving paradises to put up parking lots, and the reams of paperwork accompanying any electronic item are a recognised contributor to national deforestation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive 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 129,489^th in the world and 1,627^th in the South Pacific for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 2,037.5 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
