The Soviet Satellite State of Siegrune is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Generalsekretär Erik Honacker with an iron fist, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, compulsory vegetarianism, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 24.771 billion communist thralls are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of East Berlin. The average income tax rate is 77.0%.

The frighteningly efficient communist economy, worth a remarkable 6,697 trillion bananas 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, 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 amazing 270,380 bananas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Fair-weather fans talk during plays while die-hard theatre enthusiasts stay at home, angry citizens complain that there isn't enough geographical diversity on the new banknotes, courses in how to boil water are popular for formerly microwave-reliant communist thralls, and CSI Forest is this year's hit new crime show. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Siegrune's national animal is the spring-gun, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Marxxxism.

Siegrune is ranked 148,195th in the world and 2,349th in The East Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,045.01 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
