The United Kingdom of Samosil is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Pietro III with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, aversion to nipples, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 7.218 billion Samosilians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vascotopia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 39.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Samosilian economy, worth a remarkable 1,002 trillion Samols a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 138,926 Samols, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

The inside lane of every highway is for parked vehicles only, viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows, travelers praise airports for their endless beige corridors, and it's not uncommon to see royalty hitchhiking to the nearest party. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Samosil's national animal is the Cachorro caramelo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Kodailismo.

Samosil is ranked 100,878^th in the world and 59^th in Portugal for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 1,806.34 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
