The Swashbuckling Union of Rotvania is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Hondo Ohnaka with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 3.265 billion Rotvanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Florum. The average income tax rate is 94.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Rotvanian economy, worth 497 trillion repossessed items 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 Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 152,351 repossessed items, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is a proud sponsor of the National Gaming Association, there's a lot of babies crying for milk in the middle of the day, police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, and parents are always up to speed on the latest childcare techniques. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rotvania's national animal is the ice vulture, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Piracy.

Rotvania is ranked 289,275^th in the world and 3,727^th in the West Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -20.83 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
