The Federative Republic of Southern Yugoslavia is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by President Yuliya Surkova with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 33.529 billion Volkians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Law & Order, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Volkgoroda. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Volkian economy, worth a remarkable 5,182 trillion koronas a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 154,570 koronas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines, a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, and the military is slashing spending on conventional arms and diverting it to spending on prosthetic arms. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Southern Yugoslavia's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lunarism.

Southern Yugoslavia is ranked 89,844^th in the world and 1,058^th in The East Pacific for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 2,891.31 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
