The Socialist State of Ostrovskiy is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Dina Goldstein with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.683 billion Ostrovskians 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alkira. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Ostrovskian economy, worth a remarkable 1,518 trillion standard dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 197,665 standard dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, human tissue is grown in vats as a delicacy as well as for transplants, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and young girls who ask their parents for a pony are routinely lobotomised (Ostrovskiy has found 8 easter eggs). Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ostrovskiy's national animal is the moose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Ostrovskiy is ranked 310,823rd in the world and 876th in The Amaranthine Isles for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -12.65 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
