The Sultanate of Sliced Lunchmeat is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The democratic population of 45.613 billion Sliced Lunchmeatians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 64.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Sliced Lunchmeatian economy, worth 816 trillion well-sharpened knives a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 17,908 well-sharpened knives, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sliced Lunchmeat's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, the tenet of free speech is held dear, all recreational drugs are legal, and the death penalty has been reintroduced. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sliced Lunchmeat's national animal is the roast beast.

Sliced Lunchmeat is ranked 190,887th in the world and 15th in 100 Nations of Conquest for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
