The Holy Purple Easter Omelet of Cyclone Ranger Sigma is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by Random Lord Sigma with an iron fist, and renowned for its smutty television, pith helmet sales, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 891 million Rangers 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, with Healthcare, Industry, and Education also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sigma Central. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 33.7%.

The powerhouse Windswept economy, worth 79.1 trillion silver bullets a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 88,732 silver bullets, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

Hunters have been known to lose limbs while attempting to 'play tag' with their prey, standard-issue infantry rifles now have carnations instead of bayonets, businesses are required to round down their profits, and exam halls are littered with used needles and empty pill bottles. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Cyclone Ranger Sigma's national animal is the scorpion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cyclone Ranger Sigma is ranked 229,636th in the world and 13th in Cyclone Rangers for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 184.65 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
