The People's Republic of Siptalisia is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Albert with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, hatred of cheese, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 11.101 billion Siptalisians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Siptalisia City. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Siptalisian economy, worth a remarkable 2,062 trillion Siptoes 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 Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 185,757 Siptoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Siptalisians ask their doctors whether chili peppers are right for them, politicians are often found scavenging bins at night to supplement their income, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, and workers tend to schedule naps during all-hands meetings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Siptalisia's national animal is the Scorpion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Siptalisia is ranked 258,803^rd in the world and 1^st in Siptalisia for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,336.17 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
