The Republic of SmitopBot42 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, fear of technology, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.212 billion SmitopBot42ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 95.0%.

The frighteningly efficient SmitopBot42ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,676 trillion rubles 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, quite specialized black market in Uranium Mining, Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. 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 262,096 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

SWAT teams raid bathrooms in search of bathtub gin, healthcare workers are flummoxed over the spike in foreign tourists with sudden-onset heart disease, according to the latest national census as many as two-thirds of the respondents possibly consider 'violet' their favorite color, and an opal a day keeps the negative thoughts at bay. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SmitopBot42's national animal is the unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

SmitopBot42 is ranked 113,170th in the world and 58th in SmitopBots for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 158.84 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
