The Federation of -Sottunga- is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 1.134 billion -Sottunga-ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 58.4%.

The -Sottunga-ian economy, worth 74.4 trillion gambles a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 65,600 gambles, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

Virtual assistants are seen with increasing suspicion every time they get an upgrade, the military patrols the streets in search of possible secessionists, there's no escape from the rule of law... or police brutality, and consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Sottunga-'s national animal is the gamble, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

-Sottunga- is ranked 292,946^th in the world and 245^th in Municipalities of Finland for Nudest, with 25.25 cheeks per square mile.
