The Dictatorship of Saxonlied is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its pith helmet sales, triple-decker prams, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 766 million Saxonliedans 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.2%.
The very strong Saxonliedish economy, worth 52.4 trillion Saxondolers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 68,430 Saxondolers, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 215,690 per year while the poor average 16,597, a ratio of 13.0 to 1.
The nation's faithful often say there is a higher power watching over them, a The Axis of Evil Tourist Association survey has rated Saxonlied #1 for number twos, politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, and otherwise healthy people are being sent to internment camps because they have VODAIS. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saxonlied's national animal is the Holy And Upmost Great Saxonliedish Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Saxonlied is ranked 49,762nd in the world and 17th in The Axis of Evil for Most Corrupt Governments, with 39.89 kickbacks per hour.
