The Republic of Sirp is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 214 million Sirpians enjoy great social freedoms and frequent elections, where the majority of the populace regularly votes to increase its benefits at the expense of various hapless minorities.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 50.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Sirpian economy, worth 6.57 trillion dollars a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 30,688 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sirp's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Sirp is ranked 293,997^th in the world and 3^rd in Mix for Largest Populations, with 214 million capita.
