The Armed Republic of Soviet Terran is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President Fyodor Vladimirovich Gusarov with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 15.17 billion Русские 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 relatively small government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education is also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vladikosmos. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Soviet economy, worth a remarkable 3,859 trillion GNS a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 254,435 GNS, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 878,919 per year while the poor average 53,868, a ratio of 16.3 to 1.

There's no such thing as bad publicity, truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news, the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, and code enforcement officers circle wealthy Русские like vultures. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Soviet Terran's national animal is the Black Wyvern, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soviet Terran is ranked 23,059^th in the world and 775^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 7,461.9 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
