The Kingdom of Soupi is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 855 million Soupians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 23.9%.

The thriving Soupian economy, worth 71.4 trillion soups a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Retail. Average income is 83,509 soups, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Military officials are questioning the policy of ceding the nation's territory in exchange for promises not to invade it, war vets look after war animals, being Leader has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, and the minority inevitably have their addenda vetoed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soupi's national animal is the red panda, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Soupi is ranked 233,664^th in the world and 128^th in Federation of Martian Colonies for Most Conservative, scoring 44.3 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
