The Freople of Soem is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Pyt Snarfulton with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, smutty television, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 41.584 billion Soemeosy hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Administration, although Education, Industry, and Welfare are also considered important, while Defense and Law & Order receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Snarf City. The average income tax rate is 1.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Soemeon economy, worth an astonishing 10,501 trillion Ideas a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 252,543 Ideas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Life is somewhat repetitive, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Snarf City to enjoy their national art, comatose jurors are the defense's favorite, and defense lawyers often argue there's no proof murder victims weren't vampires. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Soem's national animal is the Snarf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soem is ranked 46^th in the world and 4^th in the South Pacific for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring 457 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
