The EPU member state of The Soviet States of Europe is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Franciscus Fredericus Iustinianus with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 7.563 billion europeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Philippe. The average income tax rate is 88.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient european economy, worth 836 trillion Eurodubloes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,637 Eurodubloes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

More than one company makes the board game Monopoly, proper policy proposals prerequire professional peer-reviewed papers, European novella fans become unusually flustered when thinking about Franciscus Fredericus Iustinianus, and the acceptance of acupuncture and other alternative therapies has needled the scientific community. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Soviet States of Europe's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Trinitism.

The Soviet States of Europe is ranked 249,390^th in the world and 10,745^th in The North Pacific for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -13.22 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
