The Federated United States of Sulivannia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Minister Grant Moulder with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, keen interest in outer space, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate population of 6.8 billion Sulivannians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Volairen. The average income tax rate is 91.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sulivannian economy, worth 725 trillion Sulivannian dollars a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 106,675 Sulivannian dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All artwork is carefully screened for offensive material, the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, nine out of ten citizens of Sulivannia answered 'nuclear safety inspector' when asked their occupation, and there's never a spare chair in the retirement home. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sulivannia's national animal is the grey wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Trenonism.

Sulivannia is ranked 294,095^th in the world and 196^th in The Free Nations Region for Most Primitive, scoring -280.09 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
