The People's Republic of Slavican is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Chairman Sirola with an iron fist, and renowned for its vat-grown people, public floggings, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.568 billion Slavicans 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, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mosrana. The average income tax rate is 88.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Slavicanian economy, worth 186 trillion Rubeks 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 Tourism, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 118,857 Rubeks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, brains have been removed from lists of best brain foods, nothing gets the party jumping like Chairman Sirola specifying how high, and they who do not work shall not eat. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Slavican's national animal is the Capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.
Slavican is ranked 11,036th in the world and 654th in Osiris for Most Pacifist, with 129.14 cheeks turned per day.
