The Sadistic Grand Dictatorship of Sardon is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Supreme Grand Leader Arez Immortal with an iron fist, and notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, free-roaming dinosaurs, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.558 billion Sardonians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Grand Golden Capital. The average income tax rate is 70.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sardonian economy, worth 528 trillion Starling golds a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 206,770 Starling golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The secret ingredient is love (and MSG), industry tycoons rarely hide their misdeeds due to the government's habit of bailing them out, The Grand Golden Capital has restaurants serving every meat from aardvark to zebra, and paralegals spend all day Hewlett-Packing attorneys' law briefs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sardon's national animal is the Courrp, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sardinian.

Sardon is ranked 2,803^rd in the world and 86^th in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 89.63 flags saluted per person per day.
