The Rogue Nation of Straeus is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Eden with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and smutty television. The compassionate, cheerful population of 25.857 billion Straeusians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Wesford. The income tax rate is 100%.

The enormous but sluggish Straeusian economy, worth a remarkable 2,012 trillion Flints a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. Average income is 77,813 Flints, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Teenage TV characters are played by thirty-year-olds by the end of the second season, there's never enough space in space, Viagra factories are being converted to producing antimalarials for Bigtopian orphans, and devotion to God is only skin-deep. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Straeus's national animal is the Pteranodon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Daius.

Straeus is ranked 116,534th in the world and 1,880th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 321.8789953862 days.
