The Republic of Sapientiano is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Andrew C Hayes with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, parental licensing program, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate population of 1.207 billion Sapions are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Sapien. The average income tax rate is 88.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sapientianoan economy, worth 159 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 132,289 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military units are often seen arguing over which one is truly favored by the gods, gambling is outlawed, the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, and no one believes anything until it has been strenuously tested and peer-reviewed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sapientiano's national animal is the Owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Sapianity.

Sapientiano is ranked 235,733^rd in the world and 7,701^st in the South Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -381.01 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
