The Mayhem and Madness of Saq is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ambroscus Koth with an iron fist, and renowned for its digital currency, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 25.68 billion Osirans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kraq. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Saqian economy, worth a remarkable 1,876 trillion diquins a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,070 diquins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Patriotic citizens chant "there's only one Saq" at foreigners, helicopter parenting is on the rise, every week is blindness awareness week, and it's rare to find an unchewed pencil. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saq's national animal is the salamander, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Pharaoh worship.

Saq is ranked 68,765th in the world and 3,822nd in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.26 law-abiding acts per hour.
