The Island of Republica de Sasha is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Marlen Nacturyme with a fair hand, and notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, free-roaming dinosaurs, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 14.749 billion Sashans 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, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Randol. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Republica de Sashan economy, worth a remarkable 5,432 trillion bitcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 368,322 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dozens of viewers go online to hear whether a comma has been added to Clause 5 in Subsection B of Law 58375, undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations, couples are discouraged from marrying until they can rank their partner on a scale of one to ten, and toast never burns but always has a weird chemical taste. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republica de Sasha's national animal is the lemur, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Republica de Sasha is ranked 9,868th in the world and 4th in Union Mundial for Most Stationary, with 2,369.2617128382 days.
