The Two Kingdom Union of The Republic of Sloviskia is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Sir President Illina Tarra with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 10.161 billion Sloviskians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Enderson City. The average income tax rate is 72.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sloviskian economy, worth a remarkable 1,090 trillion Skuns 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 107,297 Skuns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, children's daycare starts at the crack of dawn, major internet servers have acquired citizenship, and the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Republic of Sloviskia's national animal is the Hummingbird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

The Republic of Sloviskia is ranked 114,659^th in the world and 2,014^th in The North Pacific for Most Extreme, scoring 22.16 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
