The Republic of Rublex is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Bob with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, digital currency, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 8.997 billion Rublexians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rublexapilos. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rublexian economy, worth a remarkable 1,340 trillion Digicoins a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,974 Digicoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians, citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles, and on graduation day the hats thrown in the air fly high enough to stun passing pigeons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rublex's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is REEEE.

Rublex is ranked 19,933rd in the world and 522nd in the Rejected Realms for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 7,158.8 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
