The Republic of Somewhereorother is a small, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 40 million Somewhereorotherese are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The medium-sized, liberal, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 39.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Somewhereorotherian economy, worth 1.80 trillion credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 45,056 credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Decades-serving politicians are now both out of touch and out of time, the government dismisses unpopular legislation as a "misclick", a common response to government PSAs is "well, DUH, obviously", and the Somewhereorother Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise. Crime is totally unknown. Somewhereorother's national animal is the earthmover.

Somewhereorother is ranked 186,781^st in the world and 30^th in QA nerds for Most Developed, scoring 53.66 on the Human Development Index.
