The Daehan Minkoku of Rohkusen is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 540 million Rohkugeuks are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Maharatchaniwet. The average income tax rate is 68.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Rohkuguo economy, worth 40.6 trillion De facto Rohkusen Anpous 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 Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 75,193 De facto Rohkusen Anpous, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
