The Free Land of Greater Sanford is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.809 billion Sanfordans enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.
The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.
The thriving Sanfordan economy, worth 273 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 71,880 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 244,255 per year while the poor average 15,600, a ratio of 15.7 to 1.
For just a few extra dollars Sanfordans can get new driving records with their new cars, half the Sanfordan Army consists of Brasilistani contractors, hospitals have poor data security but send lots of bodies to be encrypted, and fashion magazine covers finally display realistic body images following photo-manipulation becoming illegal. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Greater Sanford's national animal is the ring-tailed pheasant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Greater Sanford is ranked 176,236th in the world and 71st in Rushmore for Most Stationary, with 87.53628425452 days.
