The United Socialist States of Stalinania is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 4.766 billion Stalinanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mosguterg. The average income tax rate is 78.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Stalinanian economy, worth 361 trillion Rubels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is 75,946 Rubels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nuclear warheads are frequently launched into space as a warning to invading meteoroids, souvenir shops that sell alphorns are taking advantage of gullible tourists, people are careful to avoid hyperbolising that they'd "rather die" than support Leader, and a glyph of Leader is worth a thousand letters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stalinania's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Stalinania is ranked 301,606^th in the world and 420^th in The Communist Bloc for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -7.8 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
