The Republic of Sau Archia is a colossal, genial nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, devout population of 9.978 billion people are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 40.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Sau Archian economy, worth 431 trillion euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 43,276 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied pokemon, rumor has it that Leader has won three lotteries in a row, planespotters are emigrating in droves, and voters must frequently select what they view as the lesser of two evils on the ballot. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sau Archia's national animal is the pokemon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sau Archia is ranked 126,266^th in the world and 32^nd in Keep of Darkness XL for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,484.89 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
