The Republic of Samniumland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Eddard Stark with an even hand, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, national health service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, cheerful population of 29.681 billion Samniumlandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Winterfell. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Samniumlandian economy, worth a remarkable 9,409 trillion Sesterzoes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 317,010 Sesterzoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every citizen sounds like a television news anchor, the sound of office water cooler chatter has been replaced by the whirring of computer cooling fans, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, and trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Samniumland's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Samniumland is ranked 1,827th in the world and 2nd in ITALIA for Lowest Crime Rates, with 148.22 law-abiding acts per hour.
