The Thundering Canyon of Dada Sasa is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Henry Schöldenbürg with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, triple-decker prams, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, devout population of 5.978 billion sasasasasans 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 medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Mentalin City. The average income tax rate is 55.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient sasasasasan economy, worth 777 trillion dad dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 130,105 dad dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

The latest electric jet fighter has almost enough battery charge to reach cruising altitude -- provided you don't use the radar, building a phallus out of Minecraft blocks counts as indecent exposure, ministers are now allowed to put suggestions in the governmental suggestion box, and crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dada Sasa's national animal is the mentalin birb, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christian and Jew.

Dada Sasa is ranked 35,173^rd in the world and 923^rd in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 79.89 law-abiding acts per hour.
