The Freople of Soem is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Pyt Snarfulton with a fair hand, and remarkable for its restrictive gun laws, devotion to social welfare, and labour-free parental leave. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 41.362 billion Soemeosy hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Snarf City. The average income tax rate is 49.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Soemeon economy, worth an astonishing 11,586 trillion Ideas a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 280,125 Ideas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Playing card suits are sold separately, the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Snarf City, life is somewhat repetitive, and social networking sites have discussion groups devoted to planning terrorist attacks. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Soem's national animal is the Snarf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soem is ranked 2,563rd in the world and 47th in the South Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 201,151.79 Standard Monetary Units.
