The Colony of Sturtgat is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Thor with an even hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, smutty television, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 5.856 billion Sturts have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of kallingårod. The average income tax rate is 23.1%.

The thriving Sturtgatian economy, worth 447 trillion stat marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 76,480 stat marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, the Sturtgat Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise, public loudspeakers constantly tell citizens they are "happy people", and vehicular homicide by Sturtgatian ambassadors is a leading cause of death throughout the world's capital cities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Sturtgat's national animal is the european fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is holy Christianity.

Sturtgat is ranked 99,978^th in the world and 54^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Most Patriotic, with 15.07 flags saluted per person per day.
