The Dictatorship of Socialist Test 460 is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.516 billion Socialist Test 460ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 90.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Socialist Test 460ian economy, worth 788 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 174,503 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

The fattest folk in Socialist Test 460 look to be the happiest ones, obstetricians are not allowed to publish ultrasound pictures of fetuses in medical journals, the overhead luggage compartment is often full, and freighter lifeboats have been replaced by state of the art marker buoys so divers can recover the cargo after they sink. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Socialist Test 460's national animal is the Black Widow, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Socialist Test 460 is ranked 291st in the world and 5th in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 113.76 law-abiding acts per hour.
