The Protectorate of Sigaland is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Governor-General Thomas S O'Reilly with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 4.381 billion Sigalanders 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 Defense, with Healthcare, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rojecko. The average income tax rate is 75.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Sigalandian economy, worth 426 trillion Corks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 97,357 Corks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government violently suppresses separatist movements, judicial torture is outsourced overseas, girls who wear lipstick are berated for pandering to male gazes, and Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sigaland's national animal is the Cork Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Oriental Ultra-Reform Judaism.

Sigaland is ranked 33,984th in the world and 1,760th in Balder for Safest, scoring 107.59 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
