The United States of Sigmalandier is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 75 million Sigmalandierians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 7.1%.

The strong Sigmalandierian economy, worth 4.64 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 61,891 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Sigmalandier's national animal is the cheetah.

Sigmalandier is ranked 184,119^th in the world and 2,804^th in The East Pacific for Most Extreme, scoring 16.43 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
