The Grand Krai of Samofia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Astolfo with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate population of 2.697 billion Samofians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Industry, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Uropapolis. The average income tax rate is 78.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Samofian economy, worth 214 trillion Samis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 79,645 Samis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A handful of megacorporations own every "craft brewery" in the nation, government adverts say that twelve lashes a day keeps divine wrath at bay, the nation's weary schoolchildren excel at sport but must count scores on their fingers, and signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Samofia's national animal is the Gralk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Femboy Thighs.

Samofia is ranked 28,733^rd in the world and 897^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,815.09 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
