The Kingdom of The Commonwealth of Rutania is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by HM King George VIII with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, avant-garde cinema, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 3.44 billion Rutanians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rutania. The average income tax rate is 61.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Rutanian economy, worth 450 trillion RUTS a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 130,933 RUTS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, a milk bath costs more than bathing in money, carrots are orange, apples are red and food waste is increasing, and planespotters are emigrating in droves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Commonwealth of Rutania's national animal is the Snow Hawk, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Royal Church of King George VIII.
The Commonwealth of Rutania is ranked 32,508th in the world and 1st in NATORM for Most Beautiful Environments, with 808.26 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
