The People's Federation of Somurias is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Premier Bogdan with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, pith helmet sales, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.941 billion Somuriasians 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 large, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yevraziya. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Somuriasian economy, worth a remarkable 1,022 trillion Narodens 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 Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 172,149 Narodens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Volunteers are signing up to take arms against an incursion of flesh-eating zombies (Somurias has found 1 easter egg), being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, the practice of capital punishment proves divisive, and Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping. 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 Atheism.

Somurias is ranked 21,210th in the world and 412th in the South Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 6,924.43 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
