The Democratic Socialist States of Sirian is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by President of Sirian with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 29.23 billion Sirianians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sirian River Valley. The average income tax rate is 80.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sirianian economy, worth an astonishing 10,150 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 347,272 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

EULAs remind customers that "Private Mode" is a browser setting rather than a promise, ancestry test results arrive bundled with patent applications, citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling", and citizens are prohibited from raising their voice above thirty decibels in commercial districts. Crime is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Sirian's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is a major religion.

Sirian is ranked 1,824^th in the world and 1^st in Aeternum for Highest Poor Incomes, with 224,412.37 Standard Monetary Units.
