The Kingdom of Sawyerland is a massive, pleasant nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 1.084 billion Sawyerlandians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kuomintang City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.5%.

The strong Sawyerlandian economy, worth 74.9 trillion Crowns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 69,109 Crowns, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 334,222 per year while the poor average 8,290, a ratio of 40.3 to 1.

The studies of art and philosophy are banned, the newest shade developed by Sawyerland's dye industry has been dubbed 'Agent Orange', conscientious objectors are hanged as traitors, and the banshee wail foretells skies of death. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. Sawyerland's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Sawyerland is ranked 286,540th in the world and 9,765th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 4.1573237282 days.
