The Republic of Sinograd is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by The President Of The Republic with an iron fist, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, ubiquitous missile silos, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.056 billion Sino-Soviets are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The City Of Sinograd. The average income tax rate is 74.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Sino-Soviet economy, worth 66.8 trillion Sino-Soviet Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 63,245 Sino-Soviet Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Streaming video is considered to be a myth by most citizens, caps with skulls on them are the height of fashion, kindergartners love the free balloons that their schools give them, and there have been reports of people marrying housepets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sinograd's national animal is the Mongolian Horse, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Sinograd is ranked 148,619^th in the world and 327^th in Europeia for Most Armed, with 0.29 Weapons Per Person.
