The Shirdi Sai Rajya of Khandesh is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Mohan Chapekar with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, disturbing lack of elderly people, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 12.978 billion Khandeshis are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shirdi. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 83.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Khandeshi economy, worth a remarkable 3,376 trillion shatamen a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 260,193 shatamen, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 791,223 per year while the poor average 66,450, a ratio of 11.9 to 1.

Police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, each infantry rifle comes pre-loaded with a single white carnation in the barrel, there's nothing more Khandeshi than revanchism, and most farmers are indentured to agrochemical conglomerates. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Khandesh's national animal is the Deoni cow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Shirdi Sai Bhakti.

Khandesh is ranked 36,624^th in the world and 1^st in The Indian Empirosis Legion for Most Developed, scoring 80.59 on the Human Development Index.
