The Amun-Ra Cult of Sundancers is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Queen Hatshepsut with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 41.656 billion Sundancers are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thebes. The average income tax rate is 93.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Sundancersian economy, worth a remarkable 4,550 trillion hedjs a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 109,235 hedjs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
News headlines suggest that Queen Hatshepsut has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, lifeguards are more concerned with watching for sharks than struggling swimmers, academics have a bone to pick with free market entrepreneurs, and would-be emigrants are told "abandon all hope all ye who would exit here". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sundancers's national animal is the scarab, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Amun-Ra.
Sundancers is ranked 22,640th in the world and 17th in The Scandalian Alliance for Nicest Citizens, with 21.52 average smiles per day.
