The Republic of Rhodesea is a gargantuan, cultured nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 22.892 billion Rhodeseans 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cordia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.9%.

The powerhouse Rhodesean economy, worth a remarkable 2,273 trillion Rhoades a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is 99,329 Rhoades, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Rhodesea's schoolchildren are manufactured into a segregated bunch of soldiers, religious zealots, and computer technicians, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, the government keeps introducing new foreign species to combat the previous ones it has introduced, and Leader has just been declared ruler of Rhodesea in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhodesea's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is a major religion.

Rhodesea is ranked 212,604^th in the world and 5^th in Panessos for Most Primitive, scoring -90.36 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
