The Union of Sinogi is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Ulman Oumae with a fair hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.873 billion Sinogians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kawaii. The average income tax rate is 97.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Sinogian economy, worth a remarkable 1,415 trillion Sigmas a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 241,065 Sigmas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sales of trenchcoats are on the rise, obstetricians are not allowed to publish ultrasound pictures of fetuses in medical journals, earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss, and the nation is known abroad mostly for its Parliamentary antics. Crime is totally unknown. Sinogi's national animal is the Moth, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Sinogi is ranked 317,960^th in the world and 11^th in The Castle for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 6,990.89 Standard Monetary Units.
