The Republic of Sea Lions is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Lionel See with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working population of 8.565 billion Sea Lionians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Singapura. The average income tax rate is 56.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Sea Lionian economy, worth 764 trillion Sand Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 89,289 Sand Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bike rage is all the rage, construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway, Sea Lionians submit requests for a date in writing with an enclosed RSVP card, and wealthy pranksters dump refuse on unsuspecting citizens from up high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Sea Lions's national animal is the Sea Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Sea Lions is ranked 13,822^nd in the world and 308^th in The East Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,324.87 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
