The Shirdi Sai Rajya of Khandesh is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Mohan Chapekar with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, avowedly heterosexual populace, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.839 billion Khandeshis 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shirdi. The average income tax rate is 87.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Khandeshi economy, worth a remarkable 1,710 trillion shatamen a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 218,197 shatamen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Lending firms are subject to strict government regulations, nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, job security isn't great for professional roulette players, and unemployment is through the roof after the government enacted living wage laws. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Khandesh's national animal is the Deoni cow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Shirdi Sai Bhakti.

Khandesh is ranked 11,453rd in the world and 5th in Pecan Sandies for Lowest Crime Rates, with 98.64 law-abiding acts per hour.
