The Fallen Empire of Roberdian is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Arcana Astavia with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 13.727 billion RBS have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Askort. The average income tax rate is 91.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Roberdianian economy, worth a remarkable 1,855 trillion Kafkas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 135,141 Kafkas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, young children are learning advanced physics to scientifically disprove the existence of Santa Claus, the running costs of homeless shelters are so high that it would be cheaper to buy houses for the homeless, and tax avoidance is a serious affair. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Roberdian's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Hellenism.

Roberdian is ranked 268,929th in the world and 1,327th in Europe for Most Secular, with 11.83 Atheism Rate.
