The Karma Koala of Sanjikurisa is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, ban on automobiles, and complete absence of social welfare. The devout population of 14.874 billion Sanjirans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 71.8%.

The Sanjiran economy, worth 594 trillion Plieris a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 40,001 Plieris, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Travellers are often forcibly evicted by torch-bearing mobs, nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, victims of limb-mauling industrial accidents are told to keep working with their remaining hand, and muscular women are banned from competing in sporting competitions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sanjikurisa's national animal is the Koala, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sanjikurisa is ranked 193,212^th in the world and 129^th in Karma for Most Primitive, scoring -78.03 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
