The Red Sox Nation of Sox is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ted Williams with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, disturbing lack of elderly people, and national health service. The compassionate, humorless, devout population of 32.669 billion Red Sox fans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fenway Park. The average income tax rate is 72.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Bostonian economy, worth a remarkable 5,194 trillion bloody socks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 159,014 bloody socks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's space program is doxxing the planet, the state-controlled media salutes those about to spy, Ted Williams's media campaigns take a hiatus around exam week, and obstetricians are not allowed to publish ultrasound pictures of fetuses in medical journals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sox's national animal is the green monster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Fever Pitch.

Sox is ranked 27,914th in the world and 10th in Seinfeld for Smartest Citizens, with 58.43 quips per hour.
