The Dictatorship of The Roach Emperor is a small, orderly nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 45 million Roach Emperorians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 71.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The struggling Roach Emperorian economy, worth 827 billion Ahns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 18,381 Ahns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People who eat pizza with lactase supplements are arrested by the flavour police, the nation's prisons are touted as the best weight loss programs money can't buy, representatives soak in mineral pools at the new capitol building day spa, and Goldilocks has found a lucrative career as a zoning consultant. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Roach Emperor's national animal is the Roach.

The Roach Emperor is ranked 121,156^th in the world and 8^th in Regionate for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 627.82 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
