The Eco-Socialist Democracy of Statte is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Sommo Stattarulo with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.078 billion Stattesi are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gambe di Mazinga. The average income tax rate is 91.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Stattese economy, worth a remarkable 1,143 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 188,066 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Being Sommo Stattarulo has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, the derisively named "Morlocks of Moria" futilely demand time in the sun, a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, and the government is a proud sponsor of the National Gaming Association. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Statte's national animal is the White Viper, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Mazinganism.

Statte is ranked 4,339^th in the world and 84^th in Europe for Highest Poor Incomes, with 172,160.8 Standard Monetary Units.
