The Borderlands of A Soviet is a mammoth, pleasant nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working population of 5.148 billion Sovietians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 24.6%.

The Sovietian economy, worth 237 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. Average income is 46,178 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians, park rangers perform full-body searches on suspected fungus smugglers, it is now illegal for teens to view any sites except Club Kitten and My Little Donkey, and the official Sovietian Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. A Soviet's national animal is the Kitsune, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

A Soviet is ranked 59,990^th in the world and 1^st in Workers Soviet for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,384.43 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
