The Socialist Federations of Schrebia is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Lobanov Sergeyevich with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.203 billion Schrebians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, 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 Üppigesdorf. The average income tax rate is 89.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Schrebian economy, worth 130 trillion Volkkasses 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 mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 108,832 Volkkasses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Religious households enthusiastically use whips in private, the "fire department" is often called to remove offensive religious texts, the Üppigesdorf Women's Prison Choir now has a baritone section, and the aims of top-secret Schrebian science projects revolve around designing the perfect robot woman. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Schrebia's national animal is the Rein Dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Secular.

Schrebia is ranked 191,068^th in the world and 7,369^th in The East Pacific for Most Pro-Market, scoring -85.11 on the Rand Index.
