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 barren, inhospitable landscape, daily referendums, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 37.48 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 1,032 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 27,547 pounds, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 192,371 per year while the poor average 1,361, a ratio of 141 to 1.

Major polluting industries have painted a lot of their machines green to give an impression of caring about the environment, several inches are being added to first class seating, ADHD now stands for Attention Distracted by Hardware Devices, and mouldy bread is served as an appetizer in many restaurants. 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 69,906th in the world and 11th in The Moon for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 2,715.92 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
