The Third Republic of Sathor is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President Vela with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, flagrant waste-dumping, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate population of 7.854 billion Sathorians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arava. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Sathorian economy, worth a remarkable 1,383 trillion Sathorian lire a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 176,194 Sathorian lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, the government spends more on chasing distant comets than on basic infrastructure, and a suspicious number of John Smiths are known to donate to Sathorian politicians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sathor's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sathor is ranked 144,783^rd in the world and 1,997^th in the Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 533.47 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
