Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis
The Dominant-Party Songun State of Peoples Republic of Old Russia is a huge, socially progressive nation, ruled by Prime Minister Aiden Krone with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 962 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Public Transport. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Trotskygrad. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology industries.
The Peoples Republic of Old Russia Enquirer offers weekly cash prizes for 'most blasphemous song, story, or cartoon', the government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion, all major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, and scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway. Crime is a serious problem. Peoples Republic of Old Russia's national animal is the Raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Trotsky.
Peoples Republic of Old Russia is ranked 1st in Candy Land and 2,898th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring 23 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
