The World Wide Terrorist Cell of RImmson is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Osama Bin Neo Laden with an even hand, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.794 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Commerce. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neo-Carthage. The average income tax rate is 87%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Information Technology and Uranium Mining.

Same-sex marriages are increasingly common, murder rates are on the rise as the popularity of soylent products grows, all tariffs have been abolished, and a chain of pubs that cater solely to children has recently been unveiled. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. RImmson's national animal is the Forrest Terrorist, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Domination of world trade, and its currency is the Bomb vest.

RImmson is ranked 35th in Port Royal and 65,140th in the world for Most Extreme, scoring 17 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
