The Friendly Christian Republic of Russila is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Ross Lee Hickman III with an even hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 6.402 billion Russilans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rossland. The average income tax rate is 94.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Russilan economy, worth 848 trillion Russilan Bitcoins a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 132,579 Russilan Bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Old people living in plastic bubbles complain about a new type of social isolation, scientists spend more time enduring government inspections than they do on actual science, life expectancies inside correctional facilities vastly exceed the national average, and dogs are encouraged to confront the psychodynamic roots of their desire to be "good boys". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Russila's national animal is the Rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Russila is ranked 33,152^nd in the world and 917^th in The North Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 132,579.52 Standard Monetary Units.
