The Federation of Psykistriaa is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, sprawling nuclear power plants, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 442 million Psykistriaans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 67.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Psykistriaan economy, worth 50.5 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 a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. 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 impressive 114,296 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Businesses are abandoning the city centre because of the lack of transport connections, employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams, the nation frequently scolds its subject territories for staying up past bedtime, and expectant parents view twins with equal parts joy and suspicion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Psykistriaa's national animal is the Rhesus Macaques, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Psykistriaa is ranked 219,249^th in the world and 4,668^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -3.54 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
