The Respublika of Zemnaya Svoboda is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by President Minister Kerenskij with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, strictly enforced bedtime, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 29.393 billion Zemnaya Svobodans 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 Defense, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Petrograd. The average income tax rate is 53.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zemnaya Svobodan economy, worth a remarkable 3,161 trillion kopeks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,545 kopeks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

There are traffic jams at sea as diligent customs officers check every part of every ship, workers of "fairweather faith" claim six months of paid leave for holy days per year, edutainment video games are taking Zemnaya Svoboda's students to the next level, and the nation has nearly as many history museums as Zemnaya Svobodans. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zemnaya Svoboda's national animal is the bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Zemnaya Svoboda is ranked 108,276^th in the world and 5,494^th in The North Pacific for Most Armed, with 0.27 Weapons Per Person.
