The Empire of Sarumans Rohan is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, suspicion of poets, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 3.177 billion Sarumans Rohanians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.7%.

The very strong Sarumans Rohanian economy, worth 167 trillion francs a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Average income is 52,568 francs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 220,146 per year while the poor average 8,172, a ratio of 26.9 to 1.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, and strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Sarumans Rohan's national animal is the wolf, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Sarumans Rohan is ranked 239,572nd in the world and 7,668th in Suspicious for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 115.02 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
