The Holy Empire of Salguod is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, digital currency, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 536 million Salguodians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 59.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Salguodian economy, worth 57.6 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,384 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Professional athletes can't see balls amid the deluge of advertisements, imitation is the sincerest form of felony, frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security, and most citizens in Salguod are abject pyrophobes after extremely graphic pamphlets were mailed nationwide by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Salguod's national animal is the Kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Salguod is ranked 19,299^th in the world and 578^th in the South Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 76.62 on the Human Development Index.
