The Stratocratic Empire of Sovende is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Imperator with an iron fist, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, public floggings, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 9.456 billion Sovendeans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vox. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Sovendean economy, worth a remarkable 1,874 trillion Jingoes a year, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 198,284 Jingoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
There has been a rapid increase of noise complaints over the sound of buzzing bees, soldiers on first dates introduce themselves only by their ranks and serial numbers, the nation operates a "finders-keepers" policy with other nations' citizens, and the nation's new foreign policy of 'very disproportionate retribution' has its neighbors on edge. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sovende's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Sovende is ranked 286,931st in the world and 162nd in Lands End for Most Primitive, scoring -481.72 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
