The Council Republic of Syndicasia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by General Commissar with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.577 billion Syndicasians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Trogenal. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Syndicasian economy, worth 708 trillion vouchers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 198,126 vouchers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Flags are commonly used as bonfire kindling, crowds of flag-burning protesters tend to accidentally become crowds of burning protesters, road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans, and burning twigs to keep warm while lost in the wild is now a felony. Crime is totally unknown. Syndicasia's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Syndicasia is ranked 9,640^th in the world and 245^th in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 101.85 law-abiding acts per hour.
