The Mayhem and Madness of Saq is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Ambroscus Koth with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, public floggings, and digital currency. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 30.954 billion Osirans 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kraq. The average income tax rate is 73.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Saqian economy, worth a remarkable 2,368 trillion diquins 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. 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 76,512 diquins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common, nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, citizens who fail to follow the official national religion are executed, and sections of the police receive paramilitary training. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saq's national animal is the salamander, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Pharaoh worship.

Saq is ranked 227,327^th in the world and 12,233^rd in Osiris for Nicest Citizens, with 11.33 average smiles per day.
