The Colony of Sweet Smokey is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 28.71 billion Sweet Smokeyians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 56.2%.

The Sweet Smokeyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,101 trillion Hoeks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 38,370 Hoeks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary. Crime is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sweet Smokey's national animal is the Beans, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sweet Smokey is ranked 184,903^rd in the world and 1^st in Socialist Military Alliance for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.02 law-abiding acts per hour.
