The Armed Republic of Comrade 243 is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 19.791 billion Comrade 243ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Defense, and Healthcare also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 70.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Comrade 243ian economy, worth 210 trillion Labormarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Pizza Delivery, and Tourism. Average income is 10,645 Labormarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Comrade 243's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Comrade 243 is ranked 4,694th in the world and 1st in Territory of Iran for Most Stationary, with 3,327.66453696 days.
