The Dictatorship of Russo-bydliya is a very large, orderly nation, remarkable for its public floggings, enforced nudity, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 190 million Russo-bydliyans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.3%.

The powerhouse Russo-bydliyan economy, worth 16.7 trillion palets a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 87,648 palets, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 351,381 per year while the poor average 14,662, a ratio of 24.0 to 1.

The Counter-Terrorism Unit has been nicknamed "Big Bad Wolf" for its tendency towards urban demolition, flatulent people are left to die of cancer at the end of hospital waiting lists, the populace harbors a fierce hatred of the metric system, and local councils have to call in dump trucks to clear parks of dinosaur droppings. Crime is a major problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Russo-bydliya's national animal is the SLON, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Russo-bydliya is ranked 284,299^th in the world and 5,404^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 178.69 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
