The Soviet Socialist Republic of Pachadistan is a huge, orderly nation, ruled by Ala'ⱬar Zhenkov with an iron fist, and renowned for its lack of airports, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 977 million Pachads are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oldfrot. The average income tax rate is 71.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Pachad economy, worth 75.4 trillion Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 77,180 Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The populace harbors a fierce hatred of the metric system, there are no more heroes any more, viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows, and many of the unemployed have had the fight taken out of them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pachadistan's national animal is the desert hare, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Pachadistan is ranked 243,806^th in the world and 20^th in The Allied Nations for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 21,919.16 Standard Monetary Units.
