The Republic of Socialist test 40 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, disturbing lack of elderly people, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 5.723 billion Socialist test 40ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 76.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Socialist test 40ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,209 trillion kronor 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. 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 211,330 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, the nation solves other countries' human rights problems with a generous dose of violence, every week is blindness awareness week, and mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Socialist test 40's national animal is the dolphin, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Socialist test 40 is ranked 22,883^rd in the world and 1,638^th in Lazarus for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 259.5 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
