The Matriarchy of Satrium is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 2.466 billion Satrians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jupiter. The average income tax rate is 75.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Satrian economy, worth 162 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 65,948 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

School history books often refer to Leader as "that imperialist pig dog", mosh pits are a common phenomenon in Leader's political rallies, census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, and insolent whistleblowers receive their just desserts on deserted isles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Satrium's national animal is the crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Satrium is ranked 26,128^th in the world and 696^th in The North Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,877.78 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
