The Loose Federation of Roguish Pirates is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Capitaine Jacques de Sores with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, unlimited-speed roads, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 21.301 billion Scurvy dogs are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tortuga. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.7%.

The all-consuming Roguish Piratesian economy, worth a remarkable 2,442 trillion dubloons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 114,666 dubloons, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 428,558 per year while the poor average 21,488, a ratio of 19.9 to 1.

Caps with skulls on them are the height of fashion, literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts, high school boys are required to pass vigorous self-mastery and sensitivity training to graduate, and ship captains always order a return to port at the slightest sign of rain. Crime is pervasive. Roguish Pirates's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Piracy.

Roguish Pirates is ranked 227,106^th in the world and 8^th in The Scandalian Alliance for Most Conservative, scoring 46.5 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
