The Free Lands of Robbonia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Rob with an even hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful population of 21.144 billion Robbonians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Londonium. The average income tax rate is 99.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Robbonian economy, worth a remarkable 7,581 trillion Robbos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 358,584 Robbos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The government is attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector, large sections of Robbonia have been named national reserves to protect the native tribes living there, clergy who start talking about politics are forced to take a holy vow of silence, and the nation locks people up and tells them they're mad for compassion's sake. Crime is totally unknown. Robbonia's national animal is the Purple Puffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

Robbonia is ranked 399^th in the world and 8^th in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 1,261.52 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
