The People's Republic of Sarussia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Federick van Nassau with an iron fist, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, digital currency, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 11.918 billion Sarussians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ruinen. The average income tax rate is 72.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Sarussian economy, worth a remarkable 1,239 trillion Sarmarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 103,975 Sarmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cleaners are very careful not to bump into the big red button on Federick van Nassau's desk, one-man canoes fitted with the latest tracking technology leave no room for one man, the government baselessly accuses foreign dignitaries of being assassins, and patriots insist that size does matter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sarussia's national animal is the Black Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Sarussia is ranked 26,399^th in the world and 38^th in Anteria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 84.99 law-abiding acts per hour.
