The Your Local Communist of Planetary Soviet Socialist Republics is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its daily referendums, soft-spoken computers, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 1.293 billion Soviets are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moscow. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 78.3%.

The all-consuming Soviet economy, worth 142 trillion Soviet Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 110,358 Soviet Credits, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

Literally voiceless people are unable to protest when food and water are denied to them, there's a hole in the heart of every Soviet city, male friends are often accompanied by a female relative in order to prove their 'straightness', and you're only as old as you feel. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Planetary Soviet Socialist Republics's national animal is the Double-headed Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Planetary Soviet Socialist Republics is ranked 263,358^th in the world and 5,500^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -8.49 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
