The Dominion of State Saud is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Marshalless Roxanne Burundzun with an iron fist, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, rampant corporate plagiarism, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 7.239 billion Sauds are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Telbarch. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Sauder economy, worth a remarkable 1,458 trillion Chielters a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 201,533 Chielters, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Humble workers tempt fate for a taste of airline caviar, the big red machine has ground to a halt, toy versions of heroin paraphernalia let kids pretend to be their favourite TV characters, and royalist is the most offensive slur in the Sauder language. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. State Saud's national animal is the Cobra, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

State Saud is ranked 1,981st in the world and 1st in Eurth for Most Patriotic, with 98.67 flags saluted per person per day.
