The Dominion of State Saud is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Marshalless Roxanne Burundzun with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 7.18 billion Sauds are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Telbarch. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Sauder economy, worth a remarkable 1,457 trillion Chielters a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 202,979 Chielters, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Owning a fishing rod can cause you to be subject to military questioning, artists are pillars of society, the nation's generous tax credits have brought all the film studios to the yard, and rumor has it that Marshalless Roxanne Burundzun has won three lotteries in a row. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. State Saud's national animal is the Cobra, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

State Saud is ranked 287,982nd in the world and 367th in Eurth for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -19.41 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
