The Oh My GOD! What were they thinking! He's not a MODERATOR! of Sedgistan is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Sedge with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, complete lack of prisons, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 38.045 billion Sedgistanis live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken individuals keep a keen eye out for any attempt to organize such a thing, and ruthlessly crush it. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rockall. Income tax is unheard of.

The enormous but stagnant Sedgistani economy, worth a remarkable 1,051 trillion pounds a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Gambling, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 27,640 pounds, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 186,030 per year while the poor average 1,530, a ratio of 121 to 1.

Engineers are reinventing the wheel, citizens have to identify all the polar bears in a blizzard photo in order to access their bank account, Sedgistanis have replaced bears in a popular idiom, and anti-government web sites are springing up. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Sedgistan's national animal is the greyhound, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Sedgistan is ranked 308,575^th in the world and 22^nd in The Moon for Least Corrupt Governments, with 10.99 percentage of bribes refused.
