The Republic of Nan Sarunai is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Maandgaelieng Sueldjoemas with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 3.688 billion Nan Sarunaians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tanjoeng Datoe. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Nan Sarunaian economy, worth 452 trillion Gold Standards a year, is highly specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 122,770 Gold Standards, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The intelligence community is playing 4-D chess with an imaginary spy network, money that should have gone to charities is instead spent on monitoring them, asking a friend if they like watermelons is a potentially criminal act, and light entertainment isn't dead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nan Sarunai's national animal is the Yellow Muntjac, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nan Sarunai is ranked 5,168^th in the world and 12^th in Fifth Empire for Lowest Crime Rates, with 115.93 law-abiding acts per hour.
