The Democratic Socialist Union of Sauros is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by President Challenger with a fair hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.765 billion Saurosians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Walkeri. The average income tax rate is 92.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Saurosian economy, worth a remarkable 1,187 trillion Saurosian Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is 86,251 Saurosian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

In the mighty jungle the lion once again sleeps tonight, lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed, mosh pits are a common phenomenon in President Challenger's political rallies, and a passport is literally priceless. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sauros's national animal is the Tyrannosaurus rex, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Sauros is ranked 297,998^th in the world and 750^th in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -12.21 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
