The Gran República of Smoya is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Claudia Romero with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 30.438 billion Smoyans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Drondén. The average income tax rate is 75.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Smoyan economy, worth a remarkable 2,957 trillion Conchas a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 97,177 Conchas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Quiet professionalism has returned to the nation's armed forces, spoiler warnings are now given out before political speeches, buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, and businesses are abandoning the city centre because of the lack of transport connections. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Smoya's national animal is the Black Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Smoya is ranked 300,250th in the world and 4th in Sunalaya for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -13.24 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
