The Socialist Republic of Runegeist

“Nihil curo de ista tua stulta superstitione.”

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

The Socialist Republic of Runegeist is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, state-planned economy, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, democratic population of 22.761 billion Runegeistians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Runegeistian economy, worth a remarkable 4,594 trillion sovereigns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 201,869 sovereigns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Octogenarian swimsuit models insist that they've still got it, construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway, giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Leader is a silly poophead, and reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Runegeist's national animal is the goblin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Runegeist is ranked 993^rd in the world and 7^th in The Leftist Assembly for Lowest Crime Rates, with 171.2 law-abiding acts per hour.
