The Republic of Soberis is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Victor Alencar with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ritual sacrifices, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 3.806 billion Soberine are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pelotas Capital District. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The very strong Soberine economy, worth 320 trillion Soberine Pesos a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 84,099 Soberine Pesos, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 389,809 per year while the poor average 10,925, a ratio of 35.7 to 1.

Concussed Pumaball players cannot remember their lineup position, group photos of the members of parliament are often mistaken for family reunions, serial killers share cells with serial jaywalkers, and a niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Soberis's national animal is the Puma, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is State secularism.

Soberis is ranked 260,163^rd in the world and 3,790^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 758.42 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
