The Kingdom of Sariella is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical population of 956 million Sariellans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 79.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Sariellan economy, worth 76.1 trillion Sariella coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 79,646 Sariella coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All beauty contests have been banned, saying 'Hi Guys' to a mixed gender group of people at work is a fireable offense, the Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on Sariella, and a light facial coating of soot is seen as the mark of an honest and hardworking man. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sariella's national animal is the Taratect, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Sariella is ranked 42,440^th in the world and 535^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 169.52 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
