The Shadow of Royal Assassin is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by MrAssassin with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 35.236 billion Royal Assassinians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of RoyalCity. The average income tax rate is 77.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Royal Assassinian economy, worth a remarkable 4,576 trillion daggers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Uranium Mining, Retail, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 129,869 daggers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The military invades any neighboring nation with the gall to criticize its policies, organised crime is fine as long as there's a well-organised tax return, motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours, and the most penniless demographics have by far the highest number of researchers per capita. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Royal Assassin's national animal is the alley rat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Atheism.

Royal Assassin is ranked 949th in the world and 19th in Nederland for Most Stationary, with 4,793.66359872 days.
