The United Soviet States of Central Russia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Sergei Vakhrushev with an even hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 12.006 billion Ruskans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chernyshevka. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Central Ruskan economy, worth a remarkable 1,124 trillion Ruskan Soviet Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 93,633 Ruskan Soviet Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's reputation for treachery has left it sidelined on the international stage, the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Chernyshevka, most towns have their Sergei Vakhrushev High School located on Sergei Vakhrushev Street, and it takes all playtime for children to locate their friends among two hundred identical heads. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Central Russia's national animal is the Grey Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Central Russia is ranked 277,345^th in the world and 10,863^rd in Balder for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 6,835.23 Standard Monetary Units.
