The Republic of Soublithe is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Robert Müller with an even hand, and remarkable for its prohibition of alcohol, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 5.636 billion Soublitheans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of soublithepol. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 64.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Soublithean economy, worth 785 trillion soublies a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 139,435 soublies, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 442,797 per year while the poor average 33,452, a ratio of 13.2 to 1.

The clergy of Christianity remains a single-sex institution, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, acupuncture is routinely prescribed for intravenous drug addicts, and suburban backyards are seized by the government and turned into national parks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soublithe's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Soublithe is ranked 159,555^th in the world and 62^nd in Southeast Union for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,296.03 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
