The Democratic Republic of SkyRoom is a small, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 20 million SkyRoomians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 31.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The fair SkyRoomian economy, worth 675 billion euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,753 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts, builders across SkyRoom are blocked up with orders for new public loos, extreme political groups are outlawed, and bread-gangs raid restaurant waste bins to stockpile uneaten rolls. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SkyRoom's national animal is the Panda, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

SkyRoom is ranked 221,142^nd in the world and 149^th in The Social Liberal Union for Largest Soda Pop Sector, scoring -6.48 on the Addison-Fukk Productivity Rating.
