The Republic of Saulterlan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Yuan Tsui with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 4.877 billion Saulterlanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hong Kong. The average income tax rate is 90.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Saulterlanian economy, worth 970 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 198,954 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu, foreigners must sell an arm and a leg to afford surgery in Saulterlan, all industry is owned and run by the government, and it's believed that women's brains will overheat if they think for themselves. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saulterlan's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Saulterlan is ranked 12,038th in the world and 16th in Cape of Good Hope for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 10,249.62 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
