The Socialist Republic of Ropanama is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Harris Berkley with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, avant-garde cinema, and smutty television. The compassionate, devout population of 4.669 billion Ropanamans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brickersburg. The average income tax rate is 79.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ropanaman economy, worth 728 trillion Ropanam Reais a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 156,108 Ropanam Reais, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bemused schoolkids colour in their favourite quadratic equations with crayons, excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside, citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Ropanama, and they unpaved paradise and tore up a parking lot (ooh, bop bop bop). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ropanama's national animal is the Cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lutheranism.

Ropanama is ranked 12,433rd in the world and 315th in the Rejected Realms for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,457.42 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
