The Republic of Sokeca is a very large, safe nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 416 million Sokecans 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 large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 58.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Sokecan economy, worth 8.82 trillion euros 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, highly specialized black market in Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, 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 21,196 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Businesses are forced to bring all work back within the nation's borders, children who write letters to Santa Claus end up in straitjackets, the government will gladly pay you next Tuesday for a hamburger today, and the government confiscates candy from babies for 'the greater good' of the nation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sokeca's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Sokeca is ranked 67,553^rd in the world and 122^nd in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 499.61 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
