The United Socialist States of Seriv is a large, genial nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 62 million Serivians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 76.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Serivian economy, worth 1.63 trillion Serbles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Cheese Exports, and Gambling. Average income is 26,351 Serbles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Women mime their gynaecological symptoms with hand-puppets, drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, and 4-year-olds are often found reminiscing about the 'good old days'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Seriv's national animal is the Light Boar, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Seriv is ranked 23,408^th in the world and 58^th in The League for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,072 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
