The Federal Republic of Sari Takahashi is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, enslaved workforce, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, devout population of 7.749 billion Sari Takahashians 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 medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 28.4%.

The large but inefficient Sari Takahashian economy, worth 295 trillion baht a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 38,123 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, local mafias have a tough time disposing of dead snitches without catching the attention of recycling authorities, police officers often head to work wearing onesies and fluffy pink bunny-slippers, and the government keeps introducing new foreign species to combat the previous ones it has introduced. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sari Takahashi's national animal is the panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sari Takahashi is ranked 87,484th in the world and 1,881st in Artificial Solar System for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
