The Soviet Republic of Siburian is a huge, genial nation, ruled by Premier Geogre Zhukove with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and ritual sacrifices. The compassionate, hard-working population of 924 million Siburianians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arjalsek. The average income tax rate is 70.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Siburianian economy, worth 124 trillion Siber Rubles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 134,216 Siber Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, Pinkerton agents are called in to forcibly break up white collar strikes, statistics show that terrorists often come from broken families, and banning party poppers has been a real party pooper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Siburian's national animal is the Siburianest Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Siburian is ranked 15,835^th in the world and 151^st in Europeia for Highest Poor Incomes, with 89,329.4 Standard Monetary Units.
