The Nation of Saiwania is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Enitap with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 28.967 billion Saiwanians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saiwana. The average income tax rate is 14.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Saiwanian economy, worth a remarkable 6,334 trillion Saiwans a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 218,693 Saiwans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance", public ferries only carry enough lifeboats for the first-class passengers, children spend all morning taking out a comma and all afternoon putting it back in again, and Catherine Gratwick's campaign support is considered seminal. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saiwania's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Nationalism.

Saiwania is ranked 234,387^th in the world and 1,232^nd in Europe for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 15.91 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
