The Armed Republic of Soviet Terran is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by President Fyodor Basargin with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 20.269 billion Русские have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The tiny government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Education and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vladikosmos. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Soviet economy, worth a remarkable 5,517 trillion GNS a year, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 272,229 GNS, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,021,242 per year while the poor average 50,713, a ratio of 20.1 to 1.

Stony-faced prosecutors play loud gangster rap music during court proceedings, Soviet Terran is increasingly belligerent on the international stage, the industries of Soviet Terran are coughing all the way to the bank, and attempts at growing pineapples in the desert have been unsuccessful. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Soviet Terran's national animal is the Black Wyvern, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soviet Terran is ranked 28,708^th in the world and 468^th in The North Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,623.13 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
