The Respublika of Zemnaya Svoboda is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Minister Kerenskij with a fair hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, strictly enforced bedtime, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 32.348 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 large, 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 63.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zemnaya Svobodan economy, worth a remarkable 3,427 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 105,965 kopeks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes, Zemnaya Svobodan police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, hostage-takers offer loyalty scheme points for prompt payment, and rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century. 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 7,265^th in the world and 358^th in The North Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 13,744.55 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
