The Commonwealth of Virtue of Sensoria is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Joseph Duval with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 4.979 billion Sensorians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The large government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Administration, and Defense also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Triampolis. The average income tax rate is 84.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sensorian economy, worth 718 trillion Emeralds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 144,306 Emeralds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

When the air force says "Black Hawk Down" they mean the feathers of the Sensorian dark-plume goshawk, military officers are given medals for disobeying orders, corporate lawyers are switching careers to the more lucrative field of green politics, and a new guerrilla marketing campaign for tap water involves government agents spraying random citizens with hose water. Crime is totally unknown. Sensoria's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is the Areteum.

Sensoria is ranked 276,272nd in the world and 1,363rd in the Outback for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 22,800.4 Standard Monetary Units.
