The Empire of Eterna Rome is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Caesar with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, free-roaming dinosaurs, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 5.213 billion Romans 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, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rome. The average income tax rate is 28.7%.

The powerhouse Roman economy, worth 442 trillion Aureuses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 84,959 Aureuses, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

The world still seems flat to some people in space, the drive to dismantle public transport has crashed and burned, surgeons walk out of theatres more often than prima donna actors, and the government is seen to favor traditionalist religions. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Eterna Rome's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Paganism.

Eterna Rome is ranked 159,354^th in the world and 10^th in Magna Aurea for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 28.67 Effective Tax Rate.
