The United Socialist States of UNIOS is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The UNIOS Federal Council with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, digital currency, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 1.566 billion UNIOSians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hridayam. The average income tax rate is 94.1%.

The all-consuming UNIOSian economy, worth 173 trillion Nayas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 110,816 Nayas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The path to inner peace is paved with state-mandated punishment, picnickers are lucky if a few wasps are the only animals that trouble them, children usually cry on their first day of school, and handling people's data is proving an immersive experience. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. UNIOS's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Reflectionism.

UNIOS is ranked 106,886^th in the world and 533^rd in The Communist Bloc for Most Extreme, scoring 22.89 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
