The State of Stay-North is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its smutty television and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 31.072 billion Stay-Northians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Welfare, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.5%.

The powerhouse Stay-Northian economy, worth a remarkable 1,497 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 48,209 betales, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 188,608 per year while the poor average 8,394, a ratio of 22.5 to 1.

Psychological disorders are a taboo subject, the military frequently holds bake sales to raise funds, students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, and fur coats have become the latest fashion trend. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Stay-North's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Stay-North is ranked 95,061st in the world and 8th in Swaziland for Most Stationary, with 476.70276435448 days.
