The Principality of Ruddsy is a very large, genial nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 422 million Ruddsyians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ruddsity. The average income tax rate is 71.5%.

The all-consuming Ruddsyian economy, worth 35.7 trillion Ruddies a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. Average income is 84,670 Ruddies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

The installation of street lights across remote goat tracks has left citizens bemused, people transfer their assets to bank accounts in Manamana before getting divorced, prisoners regularly escape detention posing as scarecrows, and babies are a small but significant export. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ruddsy's national animal is the rude, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
