The Nirvana of SoveskY is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its lack of airports, strictly enforced bedtime, and compulsory vegetarianism. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 18.246 billion SoveskYians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government prioritizes Environment, with Education and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rasputnikovski. The average income tax rate is 11.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming SoveskYian economy, worth a remarkable 1,378 trillion Bodhis a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 75,552 Bodhis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The sky (and your feet) are the limit, government bureaucrats review designs for birdhouses to ensure they do not block the views of neighbors, postmen have been arrested in job lots for selling junk mail as home insulation, and the needs of the living outweigh the needs of the dead. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SoveskY's national animal is the Bodhisattva, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Taohism.

SoveskY is ranked 290,256^th in the world and 162^nd in Portugal for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -14.26 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
