The Roman Republic of Albalonga is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 25.506 billion Albalongans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Albalonga. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.3%.

The thriving Albalongan economy, worth a remarkable 1,260 trillion Soliduses a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 49,425 Soliduses, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 163,893 per year while the poor average 11,126, a ratio of 14.7 to 1.

Racial and religious segregation has become rife as the various groups are loath to mingle, suit-clad businessmen have been taking advantage of the relaxed welfare qualifications by shopping with food stamps, a fashion designer has been arrested for inciting hatred after claiming redheads couldn't pull off vermillion, and Albalonga has designated Albalonga as its capital city. Crime is a problem. Albalonga's national animal is the Imperial Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Albalonga is ranked 250,975^th in the world and 1^st in Roman Republic for Safest, scoring 29.38 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
