The Socialist Federation of Ciskavkazia is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Pochvenov with an even hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, digital currency, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 6.406 billion Ciskavkazians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Krasnogorod. The average income tax rate is 87.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ciskavkazian economy, worth 765 trillion Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 119,353 Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scientists on maritime expeditions return with a healthy glow, citizens partake in escapades with creatures of the night, ADHD now stands for Attention Distracted by Hardware Devices, and visitors often mistake the toiletplex at music festivals for the main stage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ciskavkazia's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Ciskavkazia is ranked 268,753^rd in the world and 801^st in Carcassonne for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -4.73 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
