The Gold Corporate Wastelands of Rhododendronius is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.047 billion Rhododendronians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Education and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gotham. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Rhododendronian economy, worth 153 trillion $TRUMPs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 146,362 $TRUMPs, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,007,372 per year while the poor average 7,572, a ratio of 133 to 1.

Shady doctors seem to have impeccable records, most people attending churches are maintenance workers, foreign workers are flooding in as $TRUMPs flood out, and construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Rhododendronius's national animal is the Bat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Waifuism.

Rhododendronius is ranked 91,107^th in the world and 1^st in Tax Haven for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,747.07 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
