The Matriarchy of Satrium is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 2.392 billion Satrians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jupiter. The average income tax rate is 74.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Satrian economy, worth 155 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 64,802 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, demand for gourmet white truffles is on the rise, the new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass", and conspiracy theorists allege that the government is spying on them through their carbon monoxide detectors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Satrium's national animal is the crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Satrium is ranked 23,593^rd in the world and 670^th in The North Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 3,035.23 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
