The Armed Republic of Rousannas is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Leader with a fair hand, and renowned for its vat-grown people, smutty television, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 41.863 billion Rousannasians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rousannas City. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Rousannasian economy, worth an astonishing 14,371 trillion chiasmatas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 343,292 chiasmatas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

A rolling news ticker tape of disclaimers runs across the bottom of the screen on all TV shows, parents are shocked to find out that having kids costs money, no one knows how to tie a reef knot, and sleep-deprived officials are known to collapse after late night revision for their examinations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rousannas's national animal is the beagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Rousannas is ranked 1,012th in the world and 23rd in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 4,742.705298 days.
