The Vizierprovost Admino of Staynes is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Lambertus VII with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 9.206 billion Staynes hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sani Bursil. The average income tax rate is 66.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Staynish economy, worth 990 trillion Kiribs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 107,599 Kiribs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, inheritance tax has recently been abolished, bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms, and foreign spirits are hard to find due to an abundance of "Cletus and Jim Bob's Homemade Staynish Moonshine". Crime is totally unknown. Staynes's national animal is the Auroran Cheetah, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Thaerism.

Staynes is ranked 29,132^nd in the world and 903^rd in The East Pacific for Best Weather, with 134 Meters Of Sunlight.
