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

The Commonwealth of Rockamaba is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Joe with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program, infamous sell-swords, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.302 billion Rockamabans 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 Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kranvagn. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Rockamaban economy, worth 188 trillion Rockaian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 144,725 Rockaian Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 8.0 times as much as the poorest.

Money can't buy happiness but it can buy immunity to prosecution, secret police deal with secret crimes, lending money has become a major liability, and student exchange programs are in trouble as everyone wants to leave but no-one wants to come. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rockamaba's national animal is the Rockian Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Rockamaba is ranked 52,304^th in the world and 1,779^th in The North Pacific for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides, with 8 Rich To Poor Income Ratio.
