The Island of Sand Point is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by His Sandiness Brown the VIII with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 9.63 billion Sandmen have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Social Policy and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bayeux. The average income tax rate is 60.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sandman economy, worth a remarkable 1,664 trillion Sand Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 172,882 Sand Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Some achieve retirement and some have retirement thrust upon them, flamethrower-toting soldiers are also equipped with fire blankets and extinguishers, the economy is booming loud enough to drown out the cries of its digital labour, and schoolchildren on field trips are asked what torture means to them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sand Point's national animal is the Starfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Sandism.

Sand Point is ranked 89,064^th in the world and 7^th in Glass Gallows for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 2,324.85 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
