The ONLY Filipino of Sokala is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Art with an even hand, and renowned for its digital currency, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 6.735 billion Sokalans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bondoc City. The average income tax rate is 88.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sokalan economy, worth 787 trillion Nihils a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 116,871 Nihils, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Extreme political groups are outlawed, vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction, cat memes without alt text are now illegal, and truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sokala's national animal is the Sokalan silver-tipped toucan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is None.

Sokala is ranked 310,113^th in the world and 5,012^th in The East Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -10.2 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
