The Dominion of Soveriegn is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, parental licensing program, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 543 million Soveriegnese 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fortress 1. The average income tax rate is 76.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Soveriegnese economy, worth 46.9 trillion Labour Coupons 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 a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. 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 86,362 Labour Coupons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The police are tightening their grip on alcohol smugglers, biology and religious education classes have recently been merged, not showing enough enthusiasm for mutual assured destruction is a court-martial offence, and children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soveriegn's national animal is the Shrimp, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Soveriegn is ranked 50,042^nd in the world and 608^th in Europe for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,343.02 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
