The Most Serene Republic of Sardino is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Isaac the Fiend with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.234 billion Sardinoans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Clupeidae. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 30.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Sardinoan economy, worth 269 trillion pilchards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is 83,304 pilchards, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 270,537 per year while the poor average 19,341, a ratio of 14.0 to 1.
Wealthy pranksters dump refuse on unsuspecting citizens from up high, high school bands practice by moonlight, holiday light displays just aren't the same without seizure-inducing strobe effects, and foreigners write "made in Sardino" on shoddy merchandise in hope of receiving a buy-out. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sardino's national animal is the Sardine, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Sardino is ranked 58,202nd in the world and 2,698th in Balder for Safest, scoring 99.95 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
