Formation
The United Commune of Socialist Freemen is a commune (more so then a nation) of several smaller "nations". It was formed by a cluster of relatively small nations that underwent a series of Socialist revolutions/elections. Upon the transition from capitalism to communism, the nations became close economically, and soon politically. They decided to form a single, international community, which they called "The United Commune of Socialist Freemen".
4 Day War
During the attempted August 20th coup by The Imperial Race and the subsequent 4 Day War, Socialist Freemen played a key role in the counterintelligence efforts for Pink Floyd, ensuring that no vital information was leaked to untrustworthy nations.
In the aftermath of the war, Socialist Freemen presided over the Fifth Period Agreement and worked to ensure that both parties lived up to their respective parts of the treaty.
Government
The government is a multiparty socialist democracy that is very entrenched in the people, like you'd find in a tiny country (mostly due to the fact that it was once made up of several countrys). To keep the Commune from being centralized and less in connection with the people, there is no capitol, but instead a capitol building in every community. There is also no official language because all languages are equal according to socialist thought.
The Commune has groups of people that speak all different languages. Russian used to be the most popular (making it the de-facto language), but a wave of Esperanto has swept the lands and overtaken its predecessor. Language is a complex issue in the Commune, with many immigrant regions still speaking their native languages and multilingualism being incredibly common.

Political Parties
Being that the Commune is a democracy, there are several parties, but the overall leading party is the Socialist Labour Party (a member of SocIntern). The second most popular party is the New Democratic Party, which is more of a libertarian/civil rights party and is not a member of SocIntern.
People
As a self-proclaimed "Socialist Paradise", Socialist Freemen has attracted various kind of people, from political refugees to uneducated idealists. Because of the its strong emphasis on internationalism, a citizen of the Commune isn't easily recognized in a crowd.
After the end of the 4 Day War tensions with The Imperial Race eased, and both nations allowed anyone unsatisfied with the government to leave. The exile community in Socialist Freemen grewn to the point where it was one of the a significant minority group, but this state of detente ended with the calamity leading to the formation of The Glorious Empire
