The Matriarchy of Sgaana is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Pod of the Immortal 8 Matriarch Orca with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 3.502 billion Orca are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Abundant Waters of Southern Oceans. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Giga-Pod economy, worth 357 trillion Salmonidaes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 102,083 Salmonidaes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lines of trenches demarcate the nation's borders, companies have begun running campaigns to stop people from remembering their brand name, selling your granddad's clothes requires an incredible amount of paperwork, and surveillance cameras are banned. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sgaana's national animal is the Captive Human Trapped in a Bathtub, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Imprisoning Humans in their Own Bathtubs.

Sgaana is ranked 254,510^th in the world and 4,661^st in the South Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -167.29 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
