The Federal Republic of Soclania is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by PM Nicolas Papandreou with a fair hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 6.063 billion Soclanians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Onerupol. The average income tax rate is 69.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Soclanian economy, worth 951 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 157,017 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
News headlines suggest that PM Nicolas Papandreou has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, punk-rockers and girl-bands are united in their loss of fashion statements, PM Nicolas Papandreou has returned as a hero from a brutal campaign to conquer the local beach, and the government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soclania's national animal is the Socratian White Deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is there is no national Religion.
Soclania is ranked 258,151st in the world and 1,275th in Europe for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 43.47 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
