The Eastern Republic of Smokey Island is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, frequent executions, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 45.751 billion Smokey Islandians 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 government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Environment is ignored. The average income tax rate is 66.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Smokey Islandian economy, worth a remarkable 6,226 trillion smokey dollars a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 136,089 smokey dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Waste is frequently shipped to other countries, voting has become a nightmare since everyone keeps selecting "None of the above", same-sex marriages are increasingly common, and the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Smokey Island's national animal is the ground hog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Smokey Island is ranked 62,907th in the world and 876th in The Communist Bloc for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.22 law-abiding acts per hour.
