The Republic of Comraid is a mammoth, orderly nation, remarkable for its burgeoning hawk population. The cynical population of 5.972 billion Comraidians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 40.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Comraidian economy, worth 178 trillion rubledollars a year, is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 29,963 rubledollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Comraid's national animal is the hawk.

Comraid is ranked 303,046^th in the world and 1^st in Soviet bloc for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -50 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
