The United Socialist Republic of The Sinclarian Provinces is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Jerod Lasater with an iron fist, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, soft-spoken computers, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 15.323 billion Sinclarians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gracemeria. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Sinclarian economy, worth a remarkable 7,611 trillion Sets 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 major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 496,716 Sets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pet loving officers arrest citizens who don't give their dogs enough biscuits, the sound of office water cooler chatter has been replaced by the whirring of computer cooling fans, Sinclarian Standard Vodka is the only drink that bars stock, and political dissidents are cut off from essential services. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Sinclarian Provinces's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Sinclarian Provinces is ranked 89^th in the world and 7^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 1,640.27 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
