The Colony of South-Central Rhodesia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The Rt Hon Luca - Conservative Party with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, public floggings, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 11.896 billion South-Central Rhodesians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Salisbury. The average income tax rate is 36.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient South-Central Rhodesian economy, worth a remarkable 3,237 trillion Rhodesian Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 272,179 Rhodesian Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The annual Adult Film Awards have a category for most titillating aftershave advert, pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil, kilts and cassocks are viewed with suspicion, and baby boys who pick up pink crayons are sent to a psychiatric ward. Crime is totally unknown. South-Central Rhodesia's national animal is the Foxy Fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Anglican - Church of England.

South-Central Rhodesia is ranked 14,776^th in the world and 13^th in Lands End for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 8,273.87 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
