The Holy Empire of Sakubia is a huge, safe nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 234 million Sakubians 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 relatively small government prioritizes Defense, although Healthcare, Law & Order, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 11.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Sakubian economy, worth 20.2 trillion Jaks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 86,338 Jaks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Overcrowded buses are the new normal for suburban commuters, the military is plagued with unethical researchers, well-off serial killers write monthly checks to avoid jail time, and only AIs know why the nation is rapidly increasing its semiconductor stockpile. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sakubia's national animal is the Killer Whale, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Sakubia is ranked 81,694^th in the world and 1,722^nd in the South Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 4,015.31 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
