The Floof of the war of Sakkara42 is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, ubiquitous missile silos, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.767 billion Sakkara42ians 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 large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 69.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Sakkara42ian economy, worth 532 trillion kronor 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 large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 92,372 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise, business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, and politicians constantly ring their voters to remind them how good a job they're doing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sakkara42's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Sakkara42 is ranked 28,690th in the world and 72nd in Alliance of Supreme Powers for Safest, scoring 109.61 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
