The Commonwealth of United Chernozemye is a small, genial nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, cynical population of 26 million United Chernozemyeans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 29.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The United Chernozemyean economy, worth 1.17 trillion Ruberoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Trout Farming, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 44,842 Ruberoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, internet moderator is one of the most popular jobs among the nation's more socially awkward citizens, farm turkeys are given high doses of antidepressants to take their minds off the holiday season, and bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Chernozemye's national animal is the Field eagle.

United Chernozemye is ranked 96,642^nd in the world and 161^st in The Union of Democratic States for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,095.56 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
