The Tsardom of Rusedia is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Nicholas IV with an even hand, and remarkable for its prohibition of alcohol, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 1.423 billion Rusedians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anadyr. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Rusedian economy, worth 82.8 trillion rubles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Tourism, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,212 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Doctors refer to inner-cities as newbie zones, the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, and the nation is stuck in permanent election mode as politicians demand constant do-overs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rusedia's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Rusedia is ranked 22,205^th in the world and 401^st in Europe for Most Beautiful Environments, with 965.57 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
