The Eternal Bloom of Sakurielle is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Saya with an even hand, and remarkable for its conspicuous electricity pylons, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.001 billion Sakurians 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, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sakuraé. The average income tax rate is 93.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sakuriellean economy, worth 193 trillion florins 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 led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 96,493 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation wears its high incidence of chromosomal diseases as a badge of pride, sea side cafes are required by law to close during summer, this year's televised Budget Forecast has been cancelled because there was already one last year, and anti-environmentalist dissidents must beware of government plants in their midst. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sakurielle's national animal is the shima enaga, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hanamori.

Sakurielle is ranked 287,664^th in the world and 2,516^th in the West Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -9.81 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
