The Soviet Socialist Republics of Vawfiss is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Premier Vladimir Stanislau with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, ritual sacrifices, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 11.722 billion Soviets are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kolmagrad. The average income tax rate is 61.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vawfissian economy, worth a remarkable 2,033 trillion Soviet Tsaris 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, 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 an impressive 173,501 Soviet Tsaris, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The government keeps introducing new foreign species to combat the previous ones it has introduced, teenagers are told they're not thinking about sex enough, report cards now include a 'Pain Tolerance' grading column, and the first sword of Vawfiss does not run. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vawfiss's national animal is the Lynx, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheism.

Vawfiss is ranked 6,339^th in the world and 1^st in Tarkin for Largest Black Market, with 1,232 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
