The Commonwealth of Sunosycon is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its public floggings, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 1.7 billion Sunosyconians 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, Environment, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 67.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Sunosyk economy, worth 60.8 trillion guilders a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 35,759 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, the government single-handedly sustains the bunk bed market, RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, and every microwave and toaster is being disassembled and probed by inspectors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sunosycon's national animal is the Sea Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Sunosycon is ranked 273,278^th in the world and 3,489^th in the South Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.38 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
