The SMZ Braincell of Sentinels Mazzaria is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Lord Anthony Valeska with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, enslaved workforce, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 1.485 billion Urfians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Administration, Law & Order, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arcania Prime. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 63.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Urfian economy, worth 293 trillion Federal Credits a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 197,935 Federal Credits, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations, politicians accepting drinks in bars are executed for taking bribes, the silencing of dissent speaks volumes about the quality of Urfian democracy, and the government seizes corporate assets it deems 'scary enough'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sentinels Mazzaria's national animal is the New Urf Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Eonity.

Sentinels Mazzaria is ranked 308,255^th in the world and 80^th in Imperial World Nations for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 41.76 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
