The Central Republic of Superare is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Premier Sullivan Urqhart with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, public floggings, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate population of 2.159 billion Superarites 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 Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Invictus. The average income tax rate is 79.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Superarean economy, worth 160 trillion Derns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is 74,543 Derns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Violet Mile now refers to the long line-ups that former death row inmates wait in as they transfer to maximum security prisons, all the playground's a stage for Superarean schoolchildren, it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, and authorities are looking for a stool pigeon to rat out who is stealing food from pigeon toilets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Superare's national animal is the Stag, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Superare is ranked 33,152^nd in the world and 1,717^th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 77 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
