The Republic of Saav Mans is a mammoth, cultured nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, enslaved workforce, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, devout population of 6.459 billion Saav Mansians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 43.6%.

The strong Saav Mansian economy, worth 503 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,978 pounds, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history, government employees cannot vote for the policies they have to implement, the sun now sets on the Saav Mansian Empire, and asking 'a penny for your thoughts?' draws law enforcement response. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saav Mans's national animal is the wolf, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Saav Mans is ranked 116,953^rd in the world and 92^nd in Lightyears Away for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 2,811.92 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
