The Democratic Republic of Snestar is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Nora Moroni with an even hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, infamous sell-swords, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, cheerful population of 10.38 billion Snestaryans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dandelicha. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Snestaryan economy, worth a remarkable 1,752 trillion Aspenis a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 168,837 Aspenis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Snestaryan Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, aristocracy is given the bird and called out as a lark, surgical tape has taken on a distinctly red color, and schoolchildren have more trading cards than flash cards in their backpacks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Snestar's national animal is the Starfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Snestar is ranked 2,055^th in the world and 83^rd in Lazarus for Nicest Citizens, with 70.18 average smiles per day.
