The Nomadic Peoples of RickAstley is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, infamous sell-swords, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 7.985 billion RickAstleyians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 8.2%.

The RickAstleyian economy, worth 403 trillion Rickrolls a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 50,539 Rickrolls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild, the same 7985 social media bloggers always loudly and immediately agree with Leader's every word on Twitcher, planespotters are emigrating in droves, and the Federal Council of RickAstley has been announced as the new Head of State. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. RickAstley's national animal is the The Rick Astley Pet, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

RickAstley is ranked 224,794^th in the world and 16^th in The Great Storm for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 42.85 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
