The Empire of Roma Augusta is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 312 million Romans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small government prioritizes Industry, although Welfare, Education, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rome. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Roman economy, worth 39.6 trillion sestertiuses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 126,941 sestertiuses, with the richest citizens earning 8.8 times as much as the poorest.

Tradesmen will knock 10% off their fees if customers pay cash, the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists, the government is known to care more about its buildings than its people, and murder victims' families receive windfall payouts when the murderers are executed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Roma Augusta's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Roma Augusta is ranked 203,800^th in the world and 37^th in Texas for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -1.61 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
