The Autonomous Federation of Rookerand is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Ivan Caulkingus Bilbo Baggins VIII with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, sprawling nuclear power plants, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.756 billion Rookerandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Glaggton. The average income tax rate is 63.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rookerandian economy, worth 310 trillion Markins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,818 Markins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars, military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, the voyages of obsolete star-trekking satellites on deliberate escape orbits are only just beginning, and the dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rookerand's national animal is the Smileyball Chested Black Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Rookerand is ranked 34,679th in the world and 2nd in Randoverse for Lowest Crime Rates, with 80.13 law-abiding acts per hour.
