The Socialist Chickenocracy of Sheepstate is a mammoth, efficient nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate population of 6.883 billion Sheepstateans 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 83.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sheepstatean economy, worth 992 trillion Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 144,164 Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lifelong celibates are surprised to receive government-issue condoms in the post, entomologists flock to Sheepstate City for its remarkable gadfly population, activists sabotage clean energy in the name of the environment, and finders keepers is the law of the land. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sheepstate's national animal is the Sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sheepstate is ranked 11,693^rd in the world and 35^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Highest Poor Incomes, with 116,749.86 Standard Monetary Units.
