The Democratic Republic of Samfoychi is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, otherworldly petting zoo, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 1.445 billion Samfoychians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 67.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Samfoychian economy, worth 162 trillion Podels a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 112,457 Podels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Schoolboys who turn to watch pretty girls go by are given detention, minority children spend hours bussing to schools miles away from home, morale within the seismologist community has hit rock bottom, and being Leader has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Samfoychi's national animal is the 22-spot ladybug, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Samfoychi is ranked 47,815^th in the world and 2,409^th in The North Pacific for Most Valuable International Artwork, with 2.99 Bank.
