The United Communist State of Sheboyganite Union is a huge, cultured nation, ruled by Homero Garza Jr with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, ubiquitous missile silos, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 823 million Sheboyganites are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sheboygan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 59.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Sheboyganite economy, worth 97.6 trillion Sheboyganite Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 118,570 Sheboyganite Marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 352,548 per year while the poor average 31,264, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

Legislators work 24/7 due to an influx of single-issue bills, failed genetic experiments wreak havoc as they roam the countryside, bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms, and the government has ordered a moratorium on referenda. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sheboyganite Union's national animal is the Ugandan Knuckles, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Sheboyganite Union is ranked 71,534^th in the world and 1^st in The Sheboyganite Pact for Highest Economic Output, with 97.6 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
