The Routien Commonwealth of Comrade Commisar is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by High Admiral Norman Walker with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, vat-grown people, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 32.776 billion Routiers are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Welfare and Social Policy not funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Routié. The average income tax rate is 3.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Routien economy, worth a remarkable 7,550 trillion Silver Coins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 230,363 Silver Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Every child sleeps with a gun to protect themselves from the monster under the bed, artists count down the years until High Admiral Norman Walker is allowed to listen to their music, civil engineers are undermining sinkholes, and greased palms have made High Admiral Norman Walker's office smell like gravy. Crime is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Comrade Commisar's national animal is the Northern Killing Whale, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is North Lands Traditionalism.

Comrade Commisar is ranked 330,951^st in the world and 14^th in Valkia for Safest, scoring 2.84 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
