The Disputed Territories of Socialist test 313 is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.512 billion Socialist test 313ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 71.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Socialist test 313ian economy, worth 912 trillion Pesos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 202,310 Pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Socialist test 313's national animal is the Black Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
