The Republic of Sink- is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its smutty television, daily referendums, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, devout population of 3.804 billion Sink-ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 66.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Sink-ian economy, worth 265 trillion rupees a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,602 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year, public projects are synonymous with yawn-inducing conformity, anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card, and comedians who make offensive jokes have their ticket proceeds seized. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sink-'s national animal is the dolphin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Sink- is ranked 229,322^nd in the world and 240^th in Daylight Savings for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 160.28 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
