The Rogue Nation of Communists Snowrad is a very large, safe nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, enforced nudity, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 112 million Snowradians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Environment, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 70.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Communists Snowradian economy, worth 1.80 trillion Crons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Gambling. Average income is 16,033 Crons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Even secular Snowradians are shouting "Blessed are the cheesemakers!", male cubicle workers stand up every time a woman enters the room, Bears are considered a delicacy, and soldiers stream their classified military operations live for millions of fans. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Communists Snowrad's national animal is the Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Communists Snowrad is ranked 147,491^st in the world and 720^th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 489.17 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
