The State of Rupert House is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of prisons, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 28.701 billion Rupert Houseans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Law & Order are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.6%.

The very strong Rupert Housean economy, worth a remarkable 1,347 trillion betales a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 46,954 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 319,231 per year while the poor average 2,522, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, the government is avowedly atheist, and the tenet of free speech is held dear. Crime is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Rupert House's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Rupert House is ranked 214,170^th in the world and 464^th in United States of America for Most Beautiful Environments, with 449.9 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
