The Oppressed 👀 Peoples of San De is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Captain Ba Ba BaBaBah Barbarana with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, pith helmet sales, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.929 billion San Deans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Iag. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.4%.

The all-consuming San Dean economy, worth a remarkable 1,188 trillion kronor a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 119,675 kronor, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

There are fifty shades of yellow in outdoor swimming pools, immigrant herding has become a national pastime, the latest electric jet fighter has almost enough battery charge to reach cruising altitude -- provided you don't use the radar, and petitioners are increasingly resorting to climbing through Captain Ba Ba BaBaBah Barbarana's window to draw attention to their issues. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. San De's national animal is the penguin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Gullibilityism.

San De is ranked 188,067^th in the world and 217^th in The Regected Realns for Lowest Crime Rates, with 57.75 law-abiding acts per hour.
