The Friendly Republic of Sensorland is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Harper Huxley with a fair hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 18.602 billion Sensorians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Triumph. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Sensorian economy, worth a remarkable 4,906 trillion Emeralds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 263,778 Emeralds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new 'Who Wants To Be A Politician' election debate auditions are more popular than the debates themselves, Eau de Trashcan has become a wildly popular perfume, the people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth, and it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sensorland's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is free thought.

Sensorland is ranked 332,120th in the world and 2,676th in the West Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -40.02 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
