The People's Republic of 1st Soviet is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Hegel Malenyev with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and frequent executions. The compassionate population of 2.577 billion Sovietians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Palace of Soviet. The average income tax rate is 84.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient 1st Sovietian economy, worth 376 trillion Credits 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 146,227 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, blind dates tend to result in bruised shins, the government's economic policy can be summed up as "Abort, Retry, Fail?", and typing Hegel Malenyev's name into a search engine always gives zero matches. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 1st Soviet's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

1st Soviet is ranked 11,506^th in the world and 51^st in Starlight for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 4,236.46 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
