The ČSSR of Slipway is a massive, safe nation, ruled by WIP with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 1.727 billion Czechoslovaks have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Prague. The average income tax rate is 11.5%.

The Czechoslovak economy, worth 97.7 trillion Korunas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Automobile Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 56,592 Korunas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Nude art is becoming wildly popular, WIP has just been declared ruler of Slipway in an international press conference, the nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas, and the nation turns a blind eye to human rights abuses in its quest for athletic supremacy. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Slipway's national animal is the Wip.

Slipway is ranked 184,761^st in the world and 275^th in Commonwealth of Liberty for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 933.85 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
