The People's Republic of Sovereater is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by ArchMother with an even hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.166 billion Sovereaterians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rose City. The average income tax rate is 67.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Sovereaterian economy, worth 78.6 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Average income is 67,410 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes, libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, and courtrooms can be a little sketchy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sovereater's national animal is the deer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Truth.

Sovereater is ranked 308,322^nd in the world and 670^th in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -9.81 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
