The Supreme Socialist State of Union of Confederate Socialist Republics is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Donovan Trovikov with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.408 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Education, and Law & Order. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anargrad. The average income tax rate is 92%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Tourism and Woodchip Exports.

Max Barry is this year's Miss Union of Confederate Socialist Republics, cheese has become the new icon of political dissent, the 'kind of scrawny' 500 meter hurdle is a popular event, and the government is reining in public spending. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Union of Confederate Socialist Republics's national animal is the Timelord, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Idalic.

Union of Confederate Socialist Republics is ranked 3rd in Gaiaphagia and 96,181st in the world for Most Extreme, scoring 12 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
