The Republic of Sapsaamplot is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates, compulsory gun ownership, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 1.058 billion Sapsaamplotians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 70.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sapsaamplotian economy, worth 101 trillion arils a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 95,905 arils, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many politicians are serving jail time for minor drug offenses, phone taps are frequently carried out by the police, invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, and business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sapsaamplot's national animal is the rainbow jay, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Sapsaamplot is ranked 236,934^th in the world and 405^th in ArilCards Inc for Fattest Citizens, with 8.03 Obesity Rate.
