The Constitutional Matriarchy of South Sanmite is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Nel Zelpher with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, devout population of 13.944 billion Sanmitians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Administration, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Welfare isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chillicothe. The average income tax rate is 65.1%.

The all-consuming Sanmitian economy, worth a remarkable 1,251 trillion Sanmitian Marks a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Trout Farming, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 89,784 Sanmitian Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Nel Zelpher is strangely popular with male politicians' wives, in court almost every witness is a hostile witness, you can please all of the people some of the time if you don't mind getting nothing done most of the time, and ship captains always order a return to port at the slightest sign of rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. South Sanmite's national animal is the Sea Dragon and its national religion is Christianity.

South Sanmite is ranked 188,851^st in the world and 5^th in Ohio for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 31,334.9 Standard Monetary Units.
