The Republic of Rosorga is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Vozak Ulfric with a fair hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.589 billion Rosorgans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hoveby. The average income tax rate is 94.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Rosorgan economy, worth a remarkable 1,744 trillion lonas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 138,567 lonas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A common response to government PSAs is "well, DUH, obviously", Vozak Ulfric is considering changing the Rosorgan flag to one with more glitter, worried-looking neonatal nurses are being deployed in place of SWAT teams during dangerous drug busts, and the nation is stuck in permanent election mode as politicians demand constant do-overs. Crime is totally unknown. Rosorga's national animal is the finch, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Verunism.

Rosorga is ranked 287,106th in the world and 294th in The Union of Democratic States for Most Primitive, scoring -503.29 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
