The Free State of Perovska is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Executive Council with a fair hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, zero percent divorce rate, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 1.208 billion Perovskans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kyakhta. The average income tax rate is 57.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Perovsky economy, worth 41.1 trillion Sovznaks 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 slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Pizza Delivery. 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 34,060 Sovznaks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, parents who try to organize playdates for their kids have police drop through their ceilings, death is nobody's business, and road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Perovska's national animal is the Akhal-Teke, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Perovska is ranked 182,707^th in the world and 652^nd in Talonia for Fattest Citizens, with 9.61 Obesity Rate.
