The EPU member state of The Soviet States of Europe is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Francesco II Theodosii with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 11.48 billion europeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The frighteningly efficient european economy, worth a remarkable 1,341 trillion Eurodubloes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing.

Immersive video game experiences are interrupted by incessant disclaimer pop-ups, attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams, what's in your genes matters more than what's in your jeans, and blue sky thinkers are reminded that the firmament is actually more of a grey-ish colour. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Soviet States of Europe's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Trinitism.

The Soviet States of Europe is ranked 10,216^th in the world and 512^th in The North Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 32.73 average smiles per day.
