The United Socialist Republics of The Usr is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Premier of United Socialist States with an iron fist, and notable for its state-planned economy, suspicion of poets, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 3.091 billion Soviets are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stalingrad. The average income tax rate is 77.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse a Soviet economy, worth 573 trillion Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 185,385 Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Policemen regularly conduct midnight raids on closed donut shops to 'collect evidence', suppression of pro-democracy protests is a daily occurrence, friendly fire incidents usually result in severe burns, and only clowns with PhDs from clown college can advise Premier of United Socialist States on The Usr's coulrophobia epidemic. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Usr's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Orthodox Christians.

The Usr is ranked 15,389th in the world and 981st in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 93.79 law-abiding acts per hour.
