The Democratic Republic of Sybaritic Socialists is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by All Smuggest with a fair hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 14.013 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kippenheim. The average income tax rate is 27%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Hospitals are amongst the best-funded in the region, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, and citizens who leave the country are officially classed as traitors. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sybaritic Socialists's national animal is the lurcher, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the mebbe.

Sybaritic Socialists is ranked 14th in Europe and 1,273rd in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring 36 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
