The Republic of Sakartia is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 213 million Sakartians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 39.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Sakartian economy, worth 8.84 trillion Sakartian laris a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,510 Sakartian laris, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Troop transports blacken the sky as the military commences Operation Desert Ocean, it takes months to get the proper permits for a child's first tricycle, Sakartia is increasingly belligerent on the international stage, and the nation's armed forces are recruiting thousands to help colonise Brasilistan. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sakartia's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sakartia is ranked 88,903^rd in the world and 335^th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,326.18 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
