The Democratic Republic of Suvmia-13 is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its smutty television and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.292 billion Suvmia-13ians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.2%.

The strong Suvmia-13ian economy, worth 149 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 34,795 Euros, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 134,167 per year while the poor average 6,203, a ratio of 21.6 to 1.

Homeless people dying of starvation are thought to be a necessary cost of preventing terrorism, grade school teachers mark homework with red "CITATION NEEDED" stamps, the new one Euro coin also makes a handy throwing-star, and election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Suvmia-13's national animal is the Grey Whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Suvmia-13 is ranked 183,987^th in the world and 38^th in The Ascendancy Federation for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring zero on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
