The Roman Imperium of Vulcravia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Julius IV with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, unlimited-speed roads, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.892 billion Romans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Administration, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Roma. The average income tax rate is 49.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Vulcravian economy, worth 342 trillion Denarii a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 181,191 Denarii, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Shady doctors seem to have impeccable records, skateparks can be found in every city, pet loving officers arrest citizens who don't give their dogs enough biscuits, and the optimally efficient parking strategy for business commuters is referred to as the "traveling salesman problem". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vulcravia's national animal is the Phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Romana.

Vulcravia is ranked 18,016^th in the world and 62^nd in United Kingdom for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 297.1 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
