The United Federative Republic of Stratovar is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President Alexis with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, complete lack of prisons, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 36.736 billion Strativars are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stratica. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Stratovarian economy, worth a remarkable 8,111 trillion USR credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. Average income is an amazing 220,791 USR credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, money grows on trees, and late night talk show hosts are having a field day over President Alexis's questionably sane new coalition partners. Crime is totally unknown. Stratovar's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Stratovar is ranked 2,985^th in the world and 1^st in United Socialist Republics for Highest Poor Incomes, with 192,109.68 Standard Monetary Units.
