The Republic Unitary State of Slavinorika is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Dawson Klevit with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, devout population of 3.666 billion Slavinorikans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beatus. The average income tax rate is 75.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Slavinorikan economy, worth 328 trillion Sovras a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 89,531 Sovras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park, supermarket milk is a shear-thickening fluid that can stop small-caliber bullets, untold millions of Sovras are going into a new government-funded maternity leave scheme, and official government guidance encourages binge behaviors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Slavinorika's national animal is the Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Slavinorika is ranked 39,570^th in the world and 491^st in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 179.19 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
