The Federation of Venusian Soviets is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Vladimir Chelomnei with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.864 billion Venusian Soviets are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nowa Warszawa. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Venusian Soviet economy, worth 587 trillion Złoties a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 151,922 Złoties, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights, signs stating "You Must be This Tall to Enter" have started appearing outside retirement homes, citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, and all new "spies" are fifteen-year-old acne-ridden kids on computers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Venusian Soviets's national animal is the White Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Venusian Soviets is ranked 1,913th in the world and 39th in The Leftist Assembly for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 4,180.5 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
