The Soviet Republic of Hellenic Socialist State is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Iwan Valdonis with the Worker's Council with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, compulsory military service, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cheerful population of 8.037 billion Proletarians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, corrupt, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hellas. The average income tax rate is 99.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Proletarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,885 trillion Drachmas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 234,628 Drachmas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Visitors often mistake the toiletplex at music festivals for the main stage, bad punctuation has come to a full stop, the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Hellenic Socialist State after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, and the police have been swamped with requests to stay up past bedtime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hellenic Socialist State's national animal is the Bull, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Hellenic Socialist State is ranked 6,646^th in the world and 77^th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Beautiful Environments, with 2,010.62 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
