The State of Bishop of Rome is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its public floggings, ban on automobiles, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 18.578 billion Roman Bishoprikans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 72.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Bishop of Romean economy, worth 297 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. Average income is 16,003 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Elections have been outlawed, a dictator has seized power and outlawed elections, cars are banned, and thieves are flogged in public for their crimes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bishop of Rome's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bishop of Rome is ranked 252,117^th in the world and 665^th in United States of America for Highest Food Quality, scoring 7.52 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
