The United Socialist States of Soviet Taghouse is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Couer Benjamin with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.985 billion Soviet Taghouseans 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Objectia. The average income tax rate is 60.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Soviet Taghousean economy, worth 112 trillion Moley Coins a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 56,496 Moley Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military struggles with recruitment, troublemakers boast about how many times they have to visit their therapist, the new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass", and t-shirts displaying a photo of Couer Benjamin performing the Full-Monty are selling out. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soviet Taghouse's national animal is the Taghouse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Egyptian Neopaganism.

Soviet Taghouse is ranked 232,492^nd in the world and 8,716^th in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 22,202.93 Standard Monetary Units.
