The Community of RockTown is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Grug with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, ban on automobiles, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 8.681 billion RockTownians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Big Rock. The average income tax rate is 73.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient RockTownian economy, worth a remarkable 1,110 trillion Rocks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Basket Weaving, Soda Sales, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 127,913 Rocks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Tweenage nobles order army regiments to do their homework for them, the state believes that nature-oriented summer camps will somehow solve youth crime, five-hundred-twenty-five-thousand-six-hundred revivals is how theatre-goers measure a year, and children are regularly married to each other to secure alliances between families. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. RockTown's national animal is the Saber Tooth, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Sun God.
RockTown is ranked 125,367th in the world and 7,488th in Osiris for Most Conservative, scoring 64.08 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
