The Empire of Storage Area is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. The democratic population of 401 million Storage Areans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 21.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Storage Arean economy, worth 10.3 trillion Currenseas a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,702 Currenseas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Storage Area's national animal is the Shim, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Storage Area is ranked 255,883^rd in the world and 1^st in Storage Area for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 103.06 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
