The Smiling Boy of Snowman is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Yelah Rekkab with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 7.328 billion Snowpeople enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Steamboat. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient a Snow Person economy, worth 726 trillion Peaches a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 99,075 Peaches, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Phone taps are frequently carried out by the police, Yelah Rekkab is called 'Patches' at international summits, businesses that prove successful are immediately broken up, and citizens select which government department gets their income tax Peaches each year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Snowman's national animal is the Reindeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Snowman is ranked 233,946^th in the world and 113^th in Christmas for Fattest Citizens, with 4.89 Obesity Rate.
