The Commonwealth of Sarozer is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, devout population of 221 million Sarozerians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 36.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Sarozerian economy, worth 11.4 trillion somas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 51,498 somas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Court verdicts are predictable to within a hundredth of a percentage point, factories grind to a halt every time there is an election, strict term limits have been applied to all elected offices, and stale 'yo mamma' insults have been replaced by 'your maternal DNA' insults. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sarozer's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sarozer is ranked 74,111^th in the world and 1,019^th in the West Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 4,322.38 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
