The Free Land of SicilianPizza is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its anti-smoking policies, public floggings, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 12.149 billion SicilianPizzans 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 Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 68.5%.

The frighteningly efficient SicilianPizzan economy, worth a remarkable 1,842 trillion Pizza Slices a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 151,697 Pizza Slices, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

From the highest mountain to the deepest cave - one can always count on finding a good cell signal in SicilianPizza, old folks yearn for the days when young people saw bloodthirsty death matches with their own eyes instead of through a screen, one-upping each other in conversation is strictly prohibited, and the government recently relinquished its monopoly on the mail service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SicilianPizza's national animal is the Mafia Boss, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

SicilianPizza is ranked 13,472nd in the world and 130th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 1,898.8115972598 days.
