The NPC Nations of Sallune is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Soter with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.107 billion Sallunites are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Spirituality, and Industry are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Landfall Throne. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 91.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Sallunite economy, worth 937 trillion Silvers a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 301,603 Silvers, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,892,803 per year while the poor average 20,306, a ratio of 93.2 to 1.

The army's use of chemical weapons leaves a bad taste in the mouth, charity workers dole out hardtack from behind designer sunglasses, foreign leaders who don't applaud Soter's speeches are regarded as enemies of Sallune, and the government is known to care more about its buildings than its people. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Sallune's national animal is the Tortoise, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Soterism.

Sallune is ranked 5,938th in the world and 1st in Sallune for Largest Black Market, with 1,363 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
