The District of Sutter is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by privy council chairman with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 27.856 billion Sutterians 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 minute, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, although Education is also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.1%.

The very strong Sutterian economy, worth a remarkable 1,129 trillion Juno aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Furniture Restoration, and Information Technology. Average income is 40,564 Juno aurums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 275,786 per year while the poor average 2,179, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, Sutter has designated District City as its capital city, Privy council chairman has just been declared ruler of Sutter in an international press conference, and the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Sutter's national animal is the quick pink fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sutter is ranked 126,071^st in the world and 1^st in Bamako for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
