The United Socialist States of Samenith is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Gustavo Fring with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, aversion to nipples, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 5.34 billion Samenithians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Los Pollos Hermanos. The average income tax rate is 90.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Samenithian economy, worth 547 trillion Samenithian Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,534 Samenithian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Television characters who ask how someone's doing are charged with harassment, product development labs spend most of their money fighting the government's patent infringement lawsuits, destitute AIs lurk around online bulletin boards begging for spare Samenithian Dollars, and diplomatic fallout tends to be much more dangerous than radioactive fallout. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Samenith's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Gnosticism.

Samenith is ranked 128,100th in the world and 2,152nd in the South Pacific for Most Average, scoring 38.89 on the Average Standardized Normality Scale.
