The United Kingdoms of Neo-Routhengard is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Michel Nicole Demetrius with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.989 billion Routhengardians 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 Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edel Garden. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Neo-Routhengardian economy, worth 889 trillion xanthousites a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 223,061 xanthousites, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Michel Nicole Demetrius is a silly poophead, at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to Michel Nicole Demetrius's wardrobe, the Neo-Routhengard Enquirer offers weekly cash prizes for 'most blasphemous song, story, or cartoon', and it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neo-Routhengard's national animal is the snowshoe rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Psaltery of the Heavens.

Neo-Routhengard is ranked 23,289th in the world and 1,534th in Balder for Most Patriotic, with 44.01 flags saluted per person per day.
