The Free Land of Sayori State is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Sayori with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.565 billion Sayori Stateans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tokyo. The average income tax rate is 93.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Sayori Statean economy, worth 390 trillion French Francs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 152,418 French Francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
