The Republic of Snuu is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 374 million Snuulis are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 29.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Snuuli economy, worth 26.6 trillion Snuus a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Retail. Average income is 71,027 Snuus, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Soldiers find that home gadgets and power tools are more effective as improvised weapons than the guns they've been issued, a child's only Trickster Night scare is the sight of their parents dancing, it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, and criminals are put to death while cuddling their favourite teddy bear. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Snuu's national animal is the Kotick, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Snuu is ranked 37,869^th in the world and 1,960^th in Lazarus for Safest, scoring 106.14 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
