The Empire of Roma IV is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Ioseb Besarionis dzе Jughashvili with an even hand, and remarkable for its closed borders, daily referendums, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 3.606 billion Romans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Byzantium. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Roman economy, worth 896 trillion denarii 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 Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 248,720 denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Recent events in Dàguó have been classified 'for Ioseb Besarionis dzе Jughashvili's eyes only', the Counter-Terrorism Unit has been nicknamed "Big Bad Wolf" for its tendency towards urban demolition, summer science camps are regularly raided by narcotics police, and giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Ioseb Besarionis dzе Jughashvili is a silly poophead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Roma IV's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Roma IV is ranked 17,266^th in the world and 515^th in The East Pacific for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 3,594.53 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
