The Republic of Sendavia is a tiny, genial nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 8 million Sendavians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 35.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Sendavian economy, worth 270 billion sendavian marks a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,870 sendavian marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sendavia's national animal is the elephant.

Sendavia is ranked 201,707^th in the world and 20^th in RGBN for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 30.96 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
