The Epic Commonwealth of Roissyland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Master-General Will Powers with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 29.07 billion Roissylandians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Hope. The average income tax rate is 96.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Roissylandian economy, worth a remarkable 4,766 trillion Pounds a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 163,961 Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Urban planners beg for just one more lane before bedtime, major cities run on potato batteries, the police have been swamped with requests to stay up past bedtime, and toddlers insist their pacifiers be autoclaved. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Roissyland's national animal is the Jaguar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Undeclared.

Roissyland is ranked 1,754^th in the world and 42^nd in The East Pacific for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 9,611.53 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
