The State of Sam-Man is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 37.292 billion Sam-Manians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.0%.
The thriving Sam-Manian economy, worth a remarkable 1,941 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Furniture Restoration, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 52,074 betales, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 324,373 per year while the poor average 3,575, a ratio of 90.7 to 1.
Citizens are bombarded with advertising from their compulsory minature radios, streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all, Sam-Man has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Sam-Man in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem. Sam-Man's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Sam-Man is ranked 120,686th in the world and 324th in 0000 for Most Primitive, scoring -35.36 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
