The United Socialist Republics of Somurias is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Premier Khrashnov with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The devout population of 1.972 billion Somuriasians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yevraziya. The average income tax rate is 91.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Somuriasian economy, worth 305 trillion Taruses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 155,056 Taruses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children have nightmares about the eerie red glow and constant whirring of newly-installed machines, every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, the nation's soldiers often believe they're in the Air Force, and machine-peeled candied grapes come in individual packaging for the busy commuter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Somurias's national animal is the Phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Sons of Abraham.

Somurias is ranked 264,565^th in the world and 12,512^th in the South Pacific for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring -281.32 on the Hayek Index.
