The United Socialist States of The Peoples United Commun is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 398 million United Peoples 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, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 83.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Peoples United Communian economy, worth 15.2 trillion Vals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture and Tourism. Average income is 38,140 Vals, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Worrywarts have started advocating for a paint ban, brains have been removed from lists of best brain foods, frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security, and when people ask what the difference is between politicians and lawyers they are referred to document c15(iv) section 14.1 subsection 3.2 of the Jan 2015 political category definition guidance codes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Peoples United Commun's national animal is the Pig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Peoples United Commun is ranked 35,107^th in the world and 553^rd in The Communist Bloc for Lowest Crime Rates, with 79.94 law-abiding acts per hour.
