The Absolute Dominion of Sithisstan is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Imperator Maledictus Blaiser with an iron fist, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, otherworldly petting zoo, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.513 billion Sils 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 Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sithisburgh. The average income tax rate is 75.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Silic economy, worth a remarkable 1,376 trillion Sithis Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 249,680 Sithis Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.
Slow dancing is made trickier when Auntie Edna insists on standing between the couple's arms, Sithisstan is increasingly belligerent on the international stage, prime picnicking sites are being paved over in the name of progress, and there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sithisstan's national animal is the Sithian Raven, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Silism.
Sithisstan is ranked 10,981st in the world and 2nd in Warzone Sandbox for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 389.24 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
