The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.935 billion Romulans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

Average income is an impressive 164,687 Tal Shiars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
