The Potentially Great Country of South Austral is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Jake Filipo Kolter with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, ubiquitous missile silos, and digital currency. The compassionate, devout population of 1.167 billion South Australs are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wolverhampton. The average income tax rate is 77.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient South Australian economy, worth 131 trillion Taxeses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 113,016 Taxeses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Books are so highly regarded in South Austral that libraries are often revered as holy shrines, maximum security fish farms leave caged salmon pining for the fjords, human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, and the American Eagle is a protected species. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. South Austral's national animal is the American Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Prygacism.

South Austral is ranked 270,547^th in the world and 413^th in The League for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -9.86 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
