“A man's worth is no greater than his ambitions.”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The United Socialist Federation of Great Ruthenia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by General Secretary Edwin Wilson with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 4.945 billion Ruthenians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arcadia. The average income tax rate is 97.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Great Ruthenian economy, worth 820 trillion Union Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 165,876 Union Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, the government is avowedly secular, nations that kill a Ruthenian can expect a strongly worded letter, and political candidates are regularly blocked for minor convictions from their teenage years. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Great Ruthenia's national animal is the Sable, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheism.

Great Ruthenia is ranked 5,274^th in the world and 256^th in Osiris for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 14,795.4 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
