The Republic of Sapientiano is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by Andrew C Hayes with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 887 million Sapions are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government prioritizes Administration, with Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Sapien. The average income tax rate is 81.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sapientianoan economy, worth 105 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 119,249 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bigtopian interference in domestic elections is always democratically sanctioned, the government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, psychiatrists that date patients are congratulated on their romantic conquests, and political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sapientiano's national animal is the Owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Sapientiano is ranked 182,424^th in the world and 6,248^th in the South Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 21,822.71 Standard Monetary Units.
