The Commonwealth of Stromia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Tyr Nordstrom with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, sprawling nuclear power plants, and daily referendums. The compassionate, cheerful population of 39.954 billion Stromians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Linkoping. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Stromian economy, worth a remarkable 6,925 trillion Quints a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 173,346 Quints, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams, senior professors are allowed to skip the wait at soup kitchens, all tribal children are set for life with guaranteed government jobs, and flipping a coin to make a decision leads to a referral to Gambling Addiction Services. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stromia's national animal is the Lynx, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Anunnakiism.

Stromia is ranked 304,616^th in the world and 864^th in Europe for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -19.64 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
