The Union of Soviet States of Max Siotto is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by General Secretary Max with an iron fist, and notable for its state-planned economy, complete absence of social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 6.108 billion Siottoans 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 Welfare and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Siottograd. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 74.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Max Siottoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,986 trillion EuroRubleses 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, Retail, and Uranium Mining. 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 325,231 EuroRubleses, with the richest citizens earning 8.3 times as much as the poorest.

Loss of the ability to speak is a common affliction of the elderly, vanity is considered the fifth cardinal virtue, society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, and the nation is wading into dangerous waters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Max Siotto's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is None.

Max Siotto is ranked 88,760th in the world and 1st in United Karelian Council for Most Stationary, with 513.252449296 days.
