The Protectorate of Soviet Spaghetti is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 9.877 billion Imperials are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 73.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Imperial economy, worth 160 trillion Imperial Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 16,213 Imperial Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soviet Spaghetti's national animal is the Imperial Rancor, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soviet Spaghetti is ranked 66,745^th in the world and 1^st in The Church of Flying Spaghetti Monster for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.58 law-abiding acts per hour.
