Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The United States of Free Socialism is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by the People's High Council with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory vegetarianism. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 21.868 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although Social Equality and Healthcare are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Free Socialism City. The average income tax rate is 100%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Book Publishing.

Citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, anti-government web sites are springing up, several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, and schoolchildren have twice-weekly sex education classes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Free Socialism's national animal is the Worker Ant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is atheism, and its currency is the resource.

Free Socialism is ranked 1st in Anticapitalist Alliance and 35th in the world for Healthiest Citizens, with 41 Standard Bananas Ingested per capita per day.
