The Kingdom of Rovere is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 14 million Rovereans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.1%.
The very strong Roverean economy, worth 776 billion Roverean lire a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Trout Farming, and Retail. Average income is 55,438 Roverean lire, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 169,352 per year while the poor average 14,066, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.
It is illegal to make racist remarks in public and military spending recently hit a new high. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Rovere's national animal is the woodpecker.
Rovere is ranked 135,411th in the world and 4,607th in the South Pacific for Most Popular Tourist Destinations, with 329.85 Tourists Per Hour.
