The Republic of Rosa Alba is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Hikaru with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, complete lack of prisons, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, cheerful population of 4.072 billion Rosa Albans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yumillia. The average income tax rate is 96.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Rosa Alban economy, worth 823 trillion Yukis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 202,250 Yukis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Would-be emigrants are told "abandon all hope all ye who would exit here", the Rosa Alba Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise, the government is spending billions of taxpayer Yukis to support "struggling" industries, and politicians always seem reluctant to publish their tax returns. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rosa Alba's national animal is the Snow Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Emi.
Rosa Alba is ranked 3,717th in the world and 149th in Osiris for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 16,979.74 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
