The Free Advertising Space of Ruritania is a gargantuan, devout nation, ruled by Admiral Memo with an even hand, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed population of 15.492 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Religion & Spirituality, Education, and Law & Order. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Strelsau. The average income tax rate is 73%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.

The police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs, foreigners are treated with great suspicion, otherwise healthy people are being sent to internment camps because they have VODAIS, and it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ruritania's national animal is the ferret, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Christianity, and its currency is the sovereign.

Ruritania is ranked 4th in the region and 53,099th in the world for Largest Basket Weaving Sector.
