The People's Republic of Saghtion is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 1.649 billion Saghtionians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government prioritizes Administration, with Industry, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Defense is ignored. The average income tax rate is 46.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Saghtionian economy, worth 114 trillion baht a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,455 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The government is funding experimental battery technology while the power grid continues to crumble, citizens' names are redacted on their IDs for national security, the government's stance on marriage is 'Let Saghtionians marry themselves', and 'Turtlenado 6: You Gotta Be Kidding Me' is this summer's top-grossing movie. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saghtion's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Saghtion is ranked 57,427th in the world and 211th in the Plains of Perdition for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 4,267.23 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
