Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis
The Free Advertising Space of Ruritania is a gargantuan, economically powerful nation, ruled by Admiral Memo with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 19.906 billion 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.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Religion & Spirituality, and Law & Order. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Strelsau. The average income tax rate is 66%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
The government has declared its commitment to multilateralism, roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Strelsau Times is sold out, and hairdressers are among those who have disappeared overnight. 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 1st in Sev Space and 15,211th in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring 17 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
