The Soviet Socialist Union of Sorianora is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Joseph Stalin II with an iron fist, and notable for its teetotalling pirates, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 8.331 billion Soviets are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while Environment and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moskva. The average income tax rate is 91.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Soviet economy, worth a remarkable 3,480 trillion Soviet 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, Uranium Mining, and Retail. 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 amazing 417,834 Soviet Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Electricity company executives pray nightly to Zeus and Thor, adult unemployment is rising as available jobs are filled by young children, nuclear reactors are held together with party string and Hubba Bubba, and the legal profession considers itself above the law. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sorianora's national animal is the Russian Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is State Secularism.

Sorianora is ranked 39,191st in the world and 2nd in Callista for Most Stationary, with 1,159.11784844188 days.
