The Khanate of Societyland is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Comrade Khan with a fair hand, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, daily referendums, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 4.808 billion Societians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karabaatar. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Societylandian economy, worth 871 trillion Amoguses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 181,194 Amoguses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prisoners regularly escape detention posing as scarecrows, all the playground's a stage for Societylandian schoolchildren, new arrivals are asked the location of the Minister of the Interior's birthmark, and cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Societyland's national animal is the Blue Shoebill, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Societyland is ranked 7,513th in the world and 181st in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 467.95 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
