The Constitutional Monarchy of Sudry is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, fear of technology, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 858 million Sudrugueses 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 medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lianjami. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 23.7%.

The thriving Sudryian economy, worth 70.3 trillion Bulls a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 81,903 Bulls, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.

The government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups, Leader has just been declared ruler of Sudry in an international press conference, code enforcement officers circle wealthy Sudrugueses like vultures, and the government props up questionable pizza establishments in the name of health. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sudry's national animal is the Chameleon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sudry is ranked 114,867^th in the world and 1^st in The Union of Great Powers for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 1,547.02 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
