The Saar and Entente Ambassador of French Saar is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its lack of airports, pith helmet sales, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.319 billion Germans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saarbrücken. The average income tax rate is 90.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient German economy, worth 736 trillion Francs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Furniture Restoration, Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 138,400 Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The constant playing of Merry Birthday on German radio has led to calls for the song to be classified as a crime against humanity, mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found, the elderly live on a steady diet of canned beans in dreary government housing, and the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. French Saar's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

French Saar is ranked 320,992nd in the world and 81st in Ensio for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -11.89 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
