The Cohorse union member state of The Soviet States of Europe is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Francesko IX with a fair hand, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 4.64 billion Soviets 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Philippe. The average income tax rate is 84.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Sovietic economy, worth 503 trillion Eurodubloes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,460 Eurodubloes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Carrots are orange, apples are red and food waste is increasing, shops were recently ransacked as cigarettes returned to the shelves, the nation is stuck in permanent election mode as politicians demand constant do-overs, and older ladies are inundated with offers to help them cross the road. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Soviet States of Europe's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

The Soviet States of Europe is ranked 11,777^th in the world and 653^rd in The North Pacific for Least Corrupt Governments, with 94.3 Percentage Of Bribes Refused.
