The Dominion of Soveriegn is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its strictly enforced bedtime, compulsory military service, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 554 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 Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fortress 1. The average income tax rate is 76.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Soveriegnese economy, worth 49.7 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 89,718 Labour Coupons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

In life full of care there is no time to stop and stare, diplomacy is a foreign concept to Soveriegnese, dozens of viewers tune in weekly to hear whether a comma has been added to Clause 5 in Subsection B of Law 58375, and a government program is underway to revitalize Soveriegn's beaches. 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 266,907^th in the world and 1,348^th in Europe for Most Beautiful Environments, with 98.05 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
