The Grand Duchy of Sakuya Sumeragi is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its suspicion of poets. The hard-working, democratic population of 4.167 billion Sakuya Sumeragians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 26.6%.

The Sakuya Sumeragian economy, worth 168 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 40,392 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.
