The United Kingdoms of Neo-Routhengard is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Michel Nicole Demetrius with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, soft-spoken computers, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.982 billion Routhengardians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edel Garden. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Neo-Routhengardian economy, worth 888 trillion xanthousites a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 223,060 xanthousites, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Welfare funding has recently gone through the roof, students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, children as young as eight can present logical proofs for the existence of the afterlife, and brains have been removed from lists of best brain foods. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neo-Routhengard's national animal is the snowshoe rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Psaltery of the Heavens.

Neo-Routhengard is ranked 2,278^th in the world and 93^rd in Balder for Safest, scoring 145.34 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
