The Star Empire of The Planet Romulus is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Praetor Colius with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, infamous sell-swords, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.906 billion Romulans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ki Baratan. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Romulan economy, worth a remarkable 1,354 trillion Talons a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 136,780 Talons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins, the practice of capital punishment proves divisive, young soldiers are shocked to discover there are no 'safe spaces' on a battlefield, and scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Planet Romulus's national animal is the Set'leth, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
The Planet Romulus is ranked 18,613th in the world and 11th in United Earth Space Probe Agency for Most Stationary, with 1,670.5390697432 days.
