The People's Republic of Saharaastan is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic population of 11.304 billion Saharaastanians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 27.8%.

The strong Saharaastanian economy, worth 652 trillion Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 57,753 Pounds, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

Military spending is on the increase, people talk about things being better when men were men, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and the government's fruit business reeks of rotting produce and corruption. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saharaastan's national animal is the Camel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Saharaastan is ranked 73,084^th in the world and 5^th in Island Of Union for Most Pacifist, with 90.62 cheeks turned per day.
