The Republic of Roundland is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 11.382 billion Roundlandians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Environment, and Education. The average income tax rate is 90.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Roundlandian economy, worth 678 trillion florins a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 59,590 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, workers for the environmental protection agency are patted down for tartar sauce every morning, nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, and fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Roundland's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Roundland is ranked 305,564th in the world and 71st in Caer Sidi for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -14.69 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
