The United Federal Republics of The Seniat Union is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mikhail Pavlov with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, state-planned economy, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 7.052 billion Seniats are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Krasnov. The average income tax rate is 43.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Seniat economy, worth 459 trillion Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 65,154 Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

No suburban lawn is complete without barbed wire and landmines, the government mails weekly updates on the new anti-junk mail laws to every citizen, the nation's beloved 'good-natured doormat' is inundated by begging letters, and elderly citizens regularly buy posh multimillion-Ruble mansions. Crime is totally unknown. The Seniat Union's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is No Official Religion.

The Seniat Union is ranked 17,307^th in the world and 21^st in Jamesia for Nicest Citizens, with 24.29 average smiles per day.
