The Dictatorship of Saucetopia is a small, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 26 million Saucetopians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.1%.
The very strong Saucetopian economy, worth 1.51 trillion SAUCE DROPS a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 57,971 SAUCE DROPS, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.
All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and no one is quite sure what many government officials look like. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saucetopia's national animal is the JELLY FISH.
Saucetopia is ranked 104,622nd in the world and 141st in The Black Hawks for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 42,260.87 Standard Monetary Units.
