The Sultanate of Sasts-Germain is a large, safe nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory vegetarianism, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 129 million Germainics are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.5%.

The strong Sasts-Germainian economy, worth 8.04 trillion licscoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 62,295 licscoins, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

Those who cut young children are told to cut it out, visitors to Violet Rock City are stunned to learn that they must memorize the "99 Principles" before entering, children asking questions about science are referred to relevant sections in religious texts, and engaged partners detail their fiancés' private lives in detail to prurient bureaucrats. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sasts-Germain's national animal is the Sallygaoter.

Sasts-Germain is ranked 223,174^th in the world and 380^th in Edoca for Highest Poor Incomes, with 20,189.47 Standard Monetary Units.
