The Rational Republic of Sanden is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Edmund Muskie with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 22.919 billion Sandenians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Notlock City. The average income tax rate is 86.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Sandenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,724 trillion Shards a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 75,244 Shards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news, loans are available for students from poor families, and all streets are privately owned toll roads. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sanden's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Rationalism.
Sanden is ranked 14,957th in the world and 377th in the South Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 101 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
