The Holy Empire of Sangarika is a mid-sized, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 69 million Sangarikans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 75.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Sangarikan economy, worth 1.44 trillion baht a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 20,837 baht, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children as young as eight can present logical proofs for the existence of the afterlife, the installation of street lights across remote goat tracks has left citizens bemused, asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, and treason is relative. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sangarika's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sangarika is ranked 107,528^th in the world and 8^th in Asia for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,324.98 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
