The Federation of Ruwan Islands is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Deppie Waikiki with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, otherworldly petting zoo, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate population of 6.064 billion Ruwan Islandsians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ruwan City. The average income tax rate is 97.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Ruwan Islandsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,140 trillion Ruwan Shells a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 188,113 Ruwan Shells, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A politician who is photographed pulling a funny face while eating can say goodbye to their credibility, Deppie Waikiki's reputation is hard as nails, flight attendants rip down curtains with revolutionary fervor, and one can wake up in Ruwan Islands and have breakfast in Bigtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ruwan Islands's national animal is the Threadfin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Analogism.

Ruwan Islands is ranked 4,150th in the world and 2nd in Lands End for Most Beautiful Environments, with 2,583.16 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
