The Dictatorship of Nosyria is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Харрисон Лю with an iron fist, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.874 billion are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Сталингра́д​. The average income tax rate is 88%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Woodchip Exports and Beef-Based Agriculture.

The police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, and rumours have it that a secret police is responsible for the recent spate of missing persons. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nosyria's national animal is the kitten, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Christianity, and its currency is the ру́бль.

Nosyria is ranked 205th in Balder and 6,437th in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring 25 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
