The Armed Republic of Soviet Terran is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Fyodor Vladimirovich Gusarov with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, infamous sell-swords, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 15.177 billion Русские 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 relatively small government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vladikosmos. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Soviet economy, worth a remarkable 3,861 trillion GNS a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 254,435 GNS, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 878,919 per year while the poor average 53,868, a ratio of 16.3 to 1.

There's no such thing as bad publicity, truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news, the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, and code enforcement officers circle wealthy Русские like vultures. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Soviet Terran's national animal is the Black Wyvern, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soviet Terran is ranked 290,076^th in the world and 6,324^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -24.12 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
