The Mercian Emperor of Sotasky is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Me with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, ubiquitous missile silos, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 6.302 billion Sotaskians 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 Grenwich. The average income tax rate is 45.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Sotaskian economy, worth 816 trillion Eispeds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Information Technology. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 129,499 Eispeds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Me is the self-declared God of all Sotasky, young men in tiny bikinis draw neither comment nor stares on the morning commute, public loudspeakers constantly tell citizens they are "happy people", and banana distribution among collective farm workers is an important topic in public discourse. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sotasky's national animal is the Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Merciam.

Sotasky is ranked 229,613^th in the world and 42^nd in Merciam for Most Primitive, scoring -99.07 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
