The United Socialist States of Scrapifax is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.083 billion Scrapifaxians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Soul Harbour. The average income tax rate is 74.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Scrapifaxian economy, worth 187 trillion pobble beads a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 60,742 pobble beads, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage, actively encouraging climate change is helping reduce winter fuel costs, news headlines suggest that Leader has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scrapifax's national animal is the alpaca, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Scrapifax is ranked 42,582^nd in the world and 929^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,971.3 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
