The Territorial Area of Sunshine Shore is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.418 billion Sunshine Shoreans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 66.8%.

The powerhouse Sunshine Shorean economy, worth 228 trillion Territorial Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,585 Territorial Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Diaper-wrapped shawarma is a fan-favorite, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', the family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year, and elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sunshine Shore's national animal is the Territorial Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sunshine Shore is ranked 70,696^th in the world and 3^rd in Land for Highest Average Incomes, with 94,585.45 Standard Monetary Units.
