The Grand Duchy of Imperial Soy is a small, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 26 million Imperial Soyians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 61.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Imperial Soyian economy, worth 1.08 trillion Soys a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 41,536 Soys, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation is compulsory, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and wood-framed catapults are ready to launch diseased corpses into besieged cities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Imperial Soy's national animal is the Soy, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Imperial Soy is ranked 191,746th in the world and 1,920th in the Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 52.82 on the Human Development Index.
