The Roseade Legion of Death of The Exercitus Rosae is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 811 million Exercitus Rosaeans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25.5%.

The very strong Exercitus Rosaean economy, worth 52.1 trillion Roses a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,225 Roses, with the richest citizens earning 8.1 times as much as the poorest.

Enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections, the government insists that a ghost voted ten million times in the last election, and politicians preface their speeches with a declaration that any resemblance to speeches given by individuals living or dead is purely coincidental. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Exercitus Rosae's national animal is the Rose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Exercitus Rosae is ranked 152,096^th in the world and 2^nd in Astra for Lowest Crime Rates, with 60.86 law-abiding acts per hour.
