The Randveres fourth colony of Smiley paradise is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed population of 39.581 billion Smiley paradiseans 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 27.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Smiley paradisean economy, worth a remarkable 4,452 trillion IPER-s gold bars a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,489 IPER-s gold bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

All artwork is carefully screened for offensive material, government-run screening operations remove embryos with severe genetic disorders, ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools, and a National Academy regulates grammar and usage. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Smiley paradise's national animal is the Smiley, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Smiley paradise is ranked 131,201^st in the world and 11^th in The Backyard of Randvere for Most Corrupt Governments, with 5.57 kickbacks per hour.
