The NPC Nations of Sallune is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Soter with an iron fist, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, infamous sell-swords, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.167 billion Sallunites 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Spirituality, and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Landfall Throne. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 92.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Sallunite economy, worth 965 trillion Silvers a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 304,844 Silvers, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,991,610 per year while the poor average 18,401, a ratio of 108 to 1.

Golden statues of Tortoises line the memorial avenues of the Funerary District, religious dissidents are heartless and cold-blooded, most academic research has ground to a halt, and fire and brimstone sermons are accompanied by napalm and fragmentation bombs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Sallune's national animal is the Tortoise, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Soterism.

Sallune is ranked 2,491^st in the world and 1^st in Sallune for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 220.31 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
