The Democratic Socialist States of Sirian is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Sarah Bailey with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 22.684 billion Sirianians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sirian River Valley. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Sirianian economy, worth a remarkable 8,296 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 365,732 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military pistols are more secure than the national treasury, the internal market is thriving, Sirian is renowned for its lax gun laws, and bombs are permitted on planes for the 'security of the passengers'. Crime is totally unknown. Sirian's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is a major religion.

Sirian is ranked 294,608^th in the world and 7^th in The Celtic Order for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 13.91 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
