The United Socialist States of Souls 22 is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, digital currency, and absence of drug laws. The devout population of 16.724 billion Souls 22ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 65.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Souls 22ian economy, worth 653 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Trout Farming, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 39,093 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All recreational drugs are legal, citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, the masses are surrendering their civil liberties without complaint for the sake of shopping convenience, and carpet bombing has decimated Brasilistan's landscape and population. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Souls 22's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Souls 22 is ranked 101,741^st in the world and 1,485^th in Suspicious for Lowest Crime Rates, with 65.64 law-abiding acts per hour.
