The Empire of Rostatskaya is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Император Константин I with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.576 billion Rostatskayans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Бадиевск. The average income tax rate is 78.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rostatskayan economy, worth 298 trillion Imperial rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 116,019 Imperial rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

An enormous health awareness programme is underway, lawyers turn down litigation cases and corporate work in order to focus on lucrative public defence work, homeowners are evicted to make way for new runways, and water fights now end with thousands dead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rostatskaya's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Wings of the Virgin of Tears.

Rostatskaya is ranked 27,056^th in the world and 330^th in Europe for Lowest Crime Rates, with 84.55 law-abiding acts per hour.
