The Commonwealth of Rubian Empire is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Matthaios Angelos with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 16.268 billion Rubians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ruby. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Rubian Empirean economy, worth a remarkable 6,448 trillion Angelos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 396,362 Angelos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's green cities are indeed concrete jungles, citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, bargain-hunting is considered unpatriotic, and 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rubian Empire's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secular.

Rubian Empire is ranked 19,268^th in the world and 422^nd in the Rejected Realms for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 5,431.06 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
