The Empire of Soublithe is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its smutty television, ubiquitous missile silos, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 545 million Soublitheans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 49.1%.

The powerhouse Soublithean economy, worth 52.5 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,365 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

You're never too young to learn how to lie with confidence, drivers regularly pull over for nonexistent police cars, conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, and the government funds large training centres to turn foxes into functioning members of society. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soublithe's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soublithe is ranked 132,998^th in the world and 47^th in Atlanticana for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 764.17 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
