The Kingdom of Outer Sparta is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Alexi Palas with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, avant-garde cinema, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, cheerful population of 20.354 billion Spartans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sparta City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Spartan economy, worth a remarkable 9,403 trillion Sparts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 462,011 Sparts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Newly synthesized elements' half-lives are a million times shorter than the time it takes to say their names, skateparks can be found in every city, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, and citizens try to pass off bottlecaps they found in their backyards as historical artifacts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Outer Sparta's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Atheism.

Outer Sparta is ranked 132^nd in the world and 4^th in Europe for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 29,238.57 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
