The Imperial Communist State of Soviet Kem is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Vladimir Kem with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, frequent executions, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.774 billion Soviet Kemrainans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kem City. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Soviet Kemianan economy, worth a remarkable 1,126 trillion Marxes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Information Technology and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 236,016 Marxes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Policy reversals are more often graceful demi-détournés than u-turns, artists from across the nation compete to renovate the restrooms of old government buildings, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', and the nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soviet Kem's national animal is the Kemrainan Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Kemism.
Soviet Kem is ranked 202,678th in the world and 582nd in The Communist Bloc for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -3.16 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
