The National Republic of Sayoko is a massive, genial nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, digital currency, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 4.505 billion Sayokoans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Sayokoan economy, worth 495 trillion Bullets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 109,893 Bullets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.
Pharmacists increasingly claim they are morally obligated to take long lunches, rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, rare steaks seem even bluer now, and the installation of street lights across remote goat tracks has left citizens bemused. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sayoko's national animal is the White Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Sayoko is ranked 59,858th in the world and 5th in The United Islands of the Atlantic for Most Stationary, with 764.08154570972 days.
