The Sultanate of Saterun is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Sultan Khalid Marja with an iron fist, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, cynical population of 15.915 billion Sateryuns are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anasb. The average income tax rate is 72.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Saternalian economy, worth a remarkable 1,194 trillion sols a year, is highly specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 75,068 sols, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's police officers are famously miserable-looking, wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", students asking about negative square roots are told life has no simple answers, and citizens must have a license to operate a computer. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saterun's national animal is the Jaguar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Freedom of religion.

Saterun is ranked 228,671st in the world and 8,583rd in Lazarus for Least Corrupt Governments, with 91.5 percentage of bribes refused.
