The Federation of SkodaTruck Drivers is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its prohibition of alcohol. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 1.423 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Public Transport, and the Environment. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Motor City. The average income tax rate is 21%, but much higher for the wealthy. A healthy private sector is led by the Soda Sales industry, followed by Uranium Mining and Door-to-door Insurance Sales.

The people are famous throughout the region for their bleached-white teeth, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, organ donation rates have hit a new low, and parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. SkodaTruck Drivers's national animal is the Sko, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Da.

SkodaTruck Drivers is ranked 3rd in Environment and 30,691st in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -10 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
