The Holy Empire of Rosicrucia is a very large, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 114 million Rosicrucians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 77.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Rosicrucian economy, worth 1.07 trillion Anglias 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 9,418 Anglias, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Rosicrucia City to enjoy their national art, mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals, and the needs of the living outweigh the needs of the dead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rosicrucia's national animal is the Angel, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Rosicrucia is ranked 70,374^th in the world and 295^th in The Leftist Assembly for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 433.49 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
