The Federal Republic of Satroju is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.68 billion Satrojuans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jurojo. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Satrojuan economy, worth a remarkable 1,976 trillion Jaroes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 257,381 Jaroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government pours millions of Jaroes into rehabilitation programs annually, the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, passwords to nuclear codes must now contain upper and lower case characters, and on graduation day the hats thrown in the air fly high enough to stun passing pigeons. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Satroju's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Satroju is ranked 289,949th in the world and 5,098th in The East Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -30.5 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
