The Dictatorship of Russo-bydliya is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its deadly medical pandemics, ubiquitous missile silos, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 271 million Russo-bydliyans 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bydlograd. The average income tax rate is 12.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Russo-bydliyan economy, worth 27.9 trillion palets a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 103,109 palets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.
Police drones follow every suspected Peeping Tom, curtailed social programs have left many citizens bereft of any safety net, nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, and private businesses are paving paradises to put up parking lots. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Russo-bydliya's national animal is the SLON, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Russo-bydliya is ranked 250,678th in the world and 8th in Z H I R E G A N C for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -29.35 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
