The People's Republic of Communist Superland is a very large, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 124 million 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 68%, and even higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Book Publishing.

The government seizes all major gold finds, citizens are expected to be proficient in at least five languages, all forms of advertising are banned, and protests are legal but strictly supervised. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Communist Superland's national animal is the car, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the superlando.
