The Confederative Republic of Sal Anderro is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Il Precidence with an iron fist, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 15.157 billion Sal Anderrans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cintante Dil Precidence. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Sal Anderran economy, worth a remarkable 2,217 trillion Anderran Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 146,318 Anderran Dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 814,371 per year while the poor average 13,151, a ratio of 61.9 to 1.

Immigrants who don't like the taste of Sal Anderran Turnip Chips are immediately deported, a the South Pacific Tourist Association survey has rated Sal Anderro #1 for number twos, the police go to great efforts to seize contraband favored by politicians on the police oversight committee, and slavers are real nutters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sal Anderro's national animal is the Pacifican Killer Whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Church of the Willing Christianity.

Sal Anderro is ranked 130,316^th in the world and 1,662^nd in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 856.4 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
