The Republic of Fake communism83 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, ban on automobiles, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.548 billion Fake communism83ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fake communism83ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,443 trillion deniers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 220,460 deniers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Every workday begins with group therapy, collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise, saying that someone looks a bit pale can be construed as hate speech, and the nation forgives those who are big enough to admit they made a mistake. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Fake communism83's national animal is the dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Fake communism83 is ranked 123,784^th in the world and 4,466^th in Osiris for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 989.16 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
