The Matriarchy of Sgaana is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Pod of the Immortal 8 Matriarch Orca with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 3.514 billion Orca 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, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Abundant Waters of Southern Oceans. The average income tax rate is 94.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Giga-Pod economy, worth 359 trillion Salmonidaes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 102,405 Salmonidaes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

White chocolate is neither chocolate nor food, cash-strapped junkies lick rabbits for a cheap high, business owners return from long vacations to find their factories have been turned into homeless shelters, and interest in globalism never flags. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sgaana's national animal is the Captive Human Trapped in a Bathtub, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Imprisoning Humans in their Own Bathtubs.

Sgaana is ranked 3,322nd in the world and 73rd in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 17,662.89 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
