The Republic of Rockies is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its parental licensing program, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.785 billion Rockiesians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 57.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Rockiesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,304 trillion rubles a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 120,913 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.
Passwords to nuclear codes must now contain upper and lower case characters, teenagers are told they're not thinking about sex enough, internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, and political clichés like "band-aid solutions" and "adrenaline shots to the economy" are headed for the dumpster. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rockies's national animal is the kiwi.
Rockies is ranked 14,410th in the world and 360th in The North Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,816.86437887272 days.
