The Rogue Nation of The Resoland is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its public floggings, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 775 million Resolandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government prioritizes Healthcare, with Defense, Education, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Polgel. The average income tax rate is 15.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Resolandian economy, worth 31.7 trillion Altairian dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Cheese Exports, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 40,928 Altairian dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Children asking questions about science are referred to relevant sections in religious texts, formerly fertile fields are being leached dry of nutrients by intensive farming, aggravated apostrophe abusers are admonished and assaulted, and heterosexuality is considered positive proof of fitness to parent. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Resoland's national animal is the unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Resoland is ranked 208,558^th in the world and 4,071^st in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
